Brent was apparently a huge fan of a band called Everclear. A November 7, 1997 issue of The Ubyssey Magazine states:
Helping them muddle are the people, of whom they are loathe to talk. There is one exception: the person the album is dedicated to, Brent Fusco.
“Brent was a superfan who started the first Everclear web page,” says Eklund. "He didn’t even have a computer at home, he just did it at work. And it grew and grew and grew ... and what happened is he inspired a lot of other kids to start doing their own web pages, and he was very help Even when I first started getting into computers, I could e-mail him with the dumbest questions, and he was always really cool about it. He died, well, it must have been about a year ago, after establishing this whole on-line community of kids that were all Everclear fans.”
“He died at 27, of a stroke or heart failure,” continues Alexakis. “I’d met him when he came to a couple of our shows. He was one of those people that, well, it was hard for him to be sociable. He had a hard time with people in person. Kind of a nerd, you know? But on the computer, he just became this huge, benevolent, warm-spirited human being. And kids loved him, so much. He held so many people in. When he died there was a void left, that still hasn’t been filled.”
