Today I honor and pay my respects to Mitch Mitchell, drummer for Jimi Hendix and part of the Jimi Hendix Experience.

On Wednesday Nov 12th, 2008 Mitch was found dead in a downtown Portland hotel apparently of natural causes. Mitch Mitchell was 61 years old.

Mitch had been playing with the Experience Hendrix tour that just made a stop in Portland at the Schnitz last Friday.

Preceded in death by his former band mates:

Jimi Hendrix, 1970
Noel Redding, 2003

This rock legend will be missed and remembered.
