Multiple news sites reported Abrahamian, 46, died of a heart attack backstage after a concert Sunday night in Norfolk, Nebraska.
Starship's planned Monday night concert in Orem, Utah, was canceled, according to the Salt Lake Tribune. People who have tickets for future Starship shows should check with the concert venue.
Abrahamian had been touring with Starship, featuring original member Mickey Thomas, since 2000.
According to the band's website, Abrahamian's life was changed when he heard the Van Halen song "Eruption" when he was in the seventh grade.
"I went home and didn't leave my room until the ninth grade," he says on the site.
Starship's songs include "Sara," "Jane," "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us," "Built This City on Rock and Roll" and "Find Your Way Back."
People of the United States of America,
One more point, after knowing how many STARS Rock or Otherwise have died due to OD,Heart Attack etc,
Why do they (STARS) continue down the same path knowing drugs can kill them ie Whittey Huston?
Performing is an extremely stressful Job, suprising that moré dont OD...
@Frank – So now a heart attack means that the guy was doing drugs? Thanks, doctor.
Obviously, when Abrahamian said he "went home and didn't leave my room until the ninth grade" he meant he was practicing guitar all that time. But that's not to say that CNN shouldn't have clarified the statement...
Yup she was smok'in hot.
Tebowg did you know him ? Really your post is discusting and ignorant this man was well known in the amp modding and building cominity he was humble beyond words helpfully to anyone and everyone with his vast knowledge he was not a name dropper and never heldt a grudge or talked down to people do your research before you assume because we all know what that assumption has made you out to be
Rah. And it's "disgusting". Now go play with your G-string...on your guitar, dude.

Correcting an obvious, simple typo does not make you an expert in anything, including the English language. But you did prove your inherent nastiness and smallness of spirit quite competently in trashing a thoughtful post.
Oh. Wow. Another "entertainer" dead. Well, we all gotta go sometime. Oh, look. There's another "entertainer". And another. And another. And another.
And look at Grace now, ironically living out her final years on an estate overlooking the California coast, just like......................wait for it.....................Richard Milhouse Nixon! She embodies the whole hippie/boomer hypocracy. Imagine Yoko with no lawyers...it's easy if you try....man...
