Play our music loud, now and always. Dream On. You\u2019ve made our dreams come true.\u201d<\/p>\n Fans were quick to support the band in the comments section. \u201cThank you so much for 50 years of some of the best rock \u2018n\u2019 roll ever written and recorded,\u201d one person wrote, as a second social media user added, \u201cSad news. Best wishes to Steven, Joe, and the rest of the band.
