Thank you for posting. He was one of my best friends. I was thinking about him even today. Don’t suppose that will ever stop.
Is the story about him eating 10 Big Macs in one sitting true?
He was a hell of a music man God bless his soul
When I was 12 years old I met Tom, at my cousin Mike's, house in portland. Tom came over for a BBQ. He had a paper sack full of 40's of old English. Now my parents drank beer and would race each other on 16 oz glasses of beer. But know Tom pulled out a 40 cracked it open and in one big chug a lug it was gone.. I was 12 he was one of the reasons I got into guitar. Just wanted to share some smIles. Thanks Tom.
Living in Portland I got to see Poison Idea with Tom many times.
Pig Champion was the Leslie West of hardcore punk. He is one of the greatest hardcore punk guitar who deserves a lot more than credit and props.
Fuckin legend
At 55 I still listen to PI. Pig / Tom was an exceptional player and arranger. He kept getting better to the point that if he were still around he’d be doing something crazy musically. I’m glad I had the chance to see em live once.
Poison idea best band ever.
What a legend R.I.P. ❤
Bester Mann ever, gnadenlos guter Gitarrist einer gnadenlos guten Band.
Legend
was he friends with the guy from Tad?
The first time I heard PI was when I was in high school in 87. It was Kings of Punk and Tom's guitar playing melted my face and blew it against the wall in wet little chunks. I saw PI in Portland @ the Pine Street a couple times, Portland Meadows, even the Blue Gallery in 1988 to 92 when they were at the height of their drunken obnoxiousness. I consider myself fortunate to have been there. RIP Pig Champ
A scorching guitarist and a gentle giant. I have many records and continue to play them to this day.
I miss Tom and his playing. Also I could listen to his voice forever. Rest in Peace, you were a real champion.
The very first note of Lifestyles on The Kings of Punk album changed my life. It is in my opinion the greatest guitar sound and tone I have ever heard in punk rock. Nothing even remotely comes close to it.
He was scary smart! one of few people i felt i had to watch what i said (in the few times i talked to him as an aquaintance) so i wouldn't come off as a total idiot!
seen him one time at the show in berlin-insel der jugend but he was a great guitarist and left a hole nobody can fill. really sad
Rip Tom Pig Champion .
Rip thank you for all the music
One of the Greatest People to Exist.
The biggest and the best!!!
Miss you Pig Champion. Rest In Power !

When you were 19/20 in 1978 you had a granddaughter who had a house? When did you start to reproduce? I couldn`t make head or tail of the rest of your comment, sure your grand daughter didn`t write it for you.
