It is with profound sadness that The Residents pay their respect to the passing of Chris McGregor, their longtime lighting and tech guru, as well as a generous, warm hearted and true friend. A virtuoso lighting designer as well as a great guy, Chris unfortunately and unexpectedly suffered a heart attack and died Monday, July 31. He will be greatly missed.
