Train lead singer Pat Monahan reflected on former bassist Charlie Colin’s “unique” and “beautiful” talents following his unexpected death at 58.
“When I met Charlie Colin, front left, I fell in love with him. He was THE sweetest guy and what a handsome chap,” the “Drops of Jupiter” crooner began his touching tribute alongside a black-and-white photo of the group.
“Let’s make a band that’s the only reasonable thing to do.”
Monahan, 55, credited the late instrumentalist for helping the famed band get noticed “in SF and beyond.”
“I’ll always have a warm place for him in my heart. I always tried to pull him closer but he had a vision of his own,” Monahan concluded.
“You’re a legend, Charlie. Go charm the pants off those angels❤️🙏🏼 ⭐️.”
Colin passed away after slipping and falling in the shower while house-sitting for a friend in Brussels, his mother announced. It was not immediately clear when the freak accident occurred, as Colin’s body wasn’t discovered until his friend returned from their trip five days later.
His grieving mom shared that Colin, who was a founding member of the pop-rock group, had relocated to Belgium to teach a music master class at a conservatory.
Colin also had been working on composing music for a film.
Monahan, Colin, Rob Hotchkiss, Jimmy Stafford and Scott Underwood formed Train in San Francisco in 1993.
The group won two Grammy Awards in 2002, but year later Colin departed the band because of substance abuse issues. He later joined other bands such as Painbirds and the Side Deal.
