I'm so sad to hear the passing of one exceptionally great musician. Charles Colin, former bass player and founding member of Train passed away today. I had the honor of mixing FOH for Train for many years, Charlie was one hell of a great man. R.I.P Charlie. 💔

I am blessed beyond words to have met him and to have loved him and to have been so endlessly and unconditionally loved by him and to have had so many years of life and love ❤️ and joy and fun and laughter and so many adventures. There’s no way to describe the loss that I am feeling and the longing for just one more of his smiles that lit up my world. Thank you thank you thank you thank you for your presence in this world you made it so very bright and you gave so much joy to so many people with your heart and soul and your music.
