Ian Mackaye dead. The following taken from a friend's bulletin on myspace:
Ian Mackaye, lead singer of influential hardcore band Minor Threat as well as Fugazi passed away today in a Baltimore hospital room. Outside a Fugazi show in New Jersey last night, the singer was struck by a car passing by the front of the Ventura Theatre. Brunswick police say that the driver allegedly stopped, but then fled the scene. There is now a police investigation underway.
Mackeye was rushed to St. Agnes Hospital in Baltimore, where he was pronounced dead this morning at 6am. This is a tragedy for the underground music as a whole and we need to stand together at this time of loss.
If you get this, it's a HOAX!!!!
Fugazi hasn't played a show in nearly 6 years.

It was a hoax. Don't believe anything you read on myspace. People on there have enough time to fill out 700 question quizes about their favorite shade of red, and therefore have enough time to make up stories about celebs being dead and try and incite a massive punk rock holocaust.
