I notice no one is claiming to have seen him at the airport in Chicago or around town afterward.

Are you implying that he is actually Elvis Presley in disguise?

Effed up story. He did OD backstage once and the Dead took care of him, but he died at home another time, pretty sure.

No such thing as an ex-junkie, only a dead one. So sad.

Brent Myd­land died at his home on "My Road" in Lafayette, Cal­i­for­nia, on July 26, 1990, shortly after com­plet­ing the Grate­ful Dead's sum­mer tour. An au­topsy con­ducted by the Con­tra Costa Coro­ner's of­fice re­vealed that Myd­
land had died of acute co­caine and nar­cotic in­tox­i­ca­tion. Richard Rainey, Con­tra Costa County coro­ner, stated that "Tox­i­col­ogy tests re­veal lethal lev­els of mor­phine and co­caine in the blood" a mix­ture "com­monly re­
ferred to as a 'speed­ball'." He was the third Dead key­boardist to die (after found­ing mem­ber Ron "Pig­pen" McK­er­nan in 1973 and Keith God­chaux in 1980); Gar­cia said Myd­land's death was "crush­ing" and it abruptly closed a chap­
ter of the band's career.

Myd­land is buried at Oak­mont Memo­r­ial Park in Lafayette, Cal­i­for­nia.
