What happened to Atticus? Does anyone know?

[DFW]

26. I wish I did. We did collaborate on a project, but it never involved an exchange of contact info.

He wrote two parody verses to "Whiter Shade of Pale," and I liked them so much, I asked him if he would be OK with me using them to make a real recording. He said OK, and so I wrote a third verse (which became the second verse of the final recording), and got the band (The Freedom Toast) together in Atlanta and recorded it. I had to supervise it from here in Germany, but these days, you can do that kind of thing. I then got with our usual videographer, Cinebot Video, also of Atlanta (since moved), and we charted out a vague outline, and the final version was put out on the channel of our friends at the Parody Project. I know Atticus saw it, but he soon after ceased posting. If he lived alone and had a medical incident, I fear we might never hear of it. Maybe DU management has his real identity and location, but I wouldn't know, and I don't know their policy on delving further than an email or an address.

Here is the video that has his/our verses (first and third). For the musicians here, we (TFT) do all our own music, but we try to honor the original to the extent possible. Money for Nothing/Rubles Worth Nothing was a challenge, but we got that done, too!
