me practice the eulogy sitting on a rock under the P street bridge. Just the best.


So good. His Sweatshirt game was tight.


This has hit me hard.


Love you boy, rest in power.




He only had the best things to say about you - I remember before you came to DC that time for your dad, he told me so many stories about you and what a great guy you were. The love was reciprocal.





This is so much harder than I ever thought it would be, I have no words, but I am SO happy to see all of the love for Matt here. I know he was a big contributor to this site and looked up to so many of you. I have almost every mix he ever made since we met and started dating in 2009 - sometime soon I'll go through and try to get them up for people to hear, if they haven't been up here yet.





This is one of my favorite pictures of us - Matt being his usual goofy, doesn't-give-a-shit self, dancing at Westway in NYC to a live set by one of his favorite dudes Roctakon.

Damn. I only knew dude on here but he truly seemed like one of the Real Headz. Life is way too short, appreciate your peoples fully while you can.
 
Woah......Dude was one the most consistently funny poasters up in here. Never dull.


Left a great example on how to contribute on SS.





Hope his family & folks land safely.
 
just seeing this now.


Rest in Peace and condolences to all his people on here


not even a thing i would even want to consider happening to any of you. :(
 
Enjoyed his mixes on the Strut and his general all-around goofiness. Loved reading all the stories about the dude. Condolences to his friends and family.

Very sorry for your loss, Lily. Matt seemed like a great dude.
 
I only knew Matt through the site, and here he was always a great person. As a part of the Strut family, and as a fellow cyclist, I send condolences and best wishes to everyone who knew and loved him. I'll miss him being around.

Did I miss any other news?
 
Damn...when I was in NYC recently, Matt made a point to PM me and let me know he'd be down to hang. Schedules conflicted and we were never able to get up. We texted back and forth a bit and I said we definitely need to get up next time I'm in NYC. I truly looked forward to getting an opportunity to meet him because I always respected his record selection, his work, his contributions to the board and the fact that he was a fellow DC dude.





I'm really kicking myself for not being able to hang with the dude when I had the chance last week.





My deepest condolences to his friends and family.

pm if you want.
 
I've called the church, and they don't normally have anyone to receive mail on Saturday,


the day of Matt's service. If you get it there by 5 today that will receive it and have it at the service.





Hope that helps, I used FedEx.
 
Very sad to hear this. Many happy memories talking ish on strut.


Love to his family and friends.





Celebrating life,


stein....
