Musicians and others in the industry called him warm, genuine and someone who helped little-known bands put their names on the map.“He would listen to any band you put in front of him to give them a chance,” said Dayna Ghiraldi-Travers, founder of public relations agency Big Picture Media, who worked with Shapiro for over 15 years.

Pierce The Veil, a long-time successful alternative rock band, said they were the first band Shapiro booked. He recently began co-managing the band. On Tuesday, he had a full-circle moment with them — the band played for a sold-out audience at Madison Square Garden in New York.“We even lived at Dave’s house between tours when we needed a place to stay, not just because we were broke, but because we just loved being around each other,” the band wrote in a post on X.Shapiro was flying back to San Diego after the concert with two employees, Kendall Fortner and Emma Huke, when the plane crashed.

Nate Blasdell, former lead guitarist for the band I Set My Friends on Fire, said he was “absolutely heartbroken.”“Dave was the first booking agent I ever worked with and he was a major part of my music career in my late teen years,” he said in a post on X. “He was truly the best in the game and one of the most respected people in the industry.”

Sum 41 singer Deryck Whibley credits Shapiro to helping build the rock band back up during a “low point” in their career.

“His opinion mattered so much to me,” Whibley said. “He was that guy I would go to for advice on things.”NEW YORK (AP) — It’s been eight months since I closed the door for the last time to my childhood home in suburban New Jersey and said goodbye to more than a half century of memories.

I sometimes still struggle to let it go.Mom passed away in February 2023 after a brief battle with cancer. My sister and I didn’t want to sell the family house right away, but we soon realized we couldn’t maintain it in the fastidious manner Mom had since she and Dad purchased it back in 1962. But more importantly, without Mom, our home had become just a house.

Losing Mom, my best friend, was hard enough. Dismantling my childhood home only magnified her loss — and made me ponder my own legacy. Mom’s house had been the center of gatherings for relatives and friends who enjoyed her Italian cooking of manicottis, chicken cutlets and baked goods and then convened around her restored 1936 baby grand piano singing showtunes — sometimes off key.So how do you clear out a childhood home to prep for a sale while honoring Mom’s passion for all things cultural and love of family?
