It Is Going To Get Dark 👼✨
Today marks 4 years of HardLore… We never expected to make it this far, and I certainly never imagined spending this monumental milestone posting memorial t-shirts for my beloved co-host, but the main quest now is to honor him any way possible.
We’re making these special memorial shirts available on https://t.co/SPRkjFNqpJ to anyone who wants one, with all proceeds going to a special fund that his family, friends and I have big plans for, and can’t wait to share them with you all… Something has to change, and we’re going to do our part to ensure that, in Bo’s name.
Shortly after HardLore started, I bought a watch with a GMT hand (a third hand that lets you set a 2nd time zone), and I was so excited to show Bo that I had immediately set it to Chicago timezone.
Chicago and its community has always meant a lot to me and my bands, but it symbolically a became a second home over the last 4 years. My heart is forever with all of you, and that hand will always tick to Chicago time… ❤️ 🤍 🩵
In loving memory of Bohan Daniel Lueders…
Starting tomorrow on HardLore, we have the first of three final projects recorded with our beloved brother and the other half of this show from the beginning.
In January of this year, we had the idea to interview each other in great detail about our childhoods, formative years and beyond in a nearly 3 hour conversation that (at the time) we deemed was too personal to release.
Now I believe there is a greater purpose to this conversation, and despite some parts being difficult to listen to given the current circumstance, it is an absolute miracle that it exists. I sat with it all day the day after he passed just to hear his voice again, and found that rather than being struck by the pain of him being gone, there was relief in feeling like he was back in the room with me. I take comfort in knowing that in many ways, he always will be.
I am so lucky and grateful to have thousands of photos with my best friend, and countless hours of footage, so let that inspire you all to do the same. Just take the damn pictures. You’ll be glad to have them.
In this time of unimaginable shock, and pain, I thank you all for your kind words, stories and support for Bo these last few days. I wish he could have seen it.
For Bo, Forever.
I promise I would much rather be at Dynamite than having to attend my friends funeral. Thank you to Bandido for being the best partner and stepping up in my absence and thank you to Tony for giving me the ability to be with my friends and family at this time. #Boluedersforver
