U2 ‘s longtime tour manager died early Wednesday morning in Los Angeles … just as the band kicked off a week-long string of concerts in the city. Dennis Sheehan was found unconscious in his room at the Sunset Marquis Hotel. We’re told paramedics were called to Sheehan’s hotel room around 5:30 AM for a reported cardiac arrest. He was pronounced dead on the scene. Sheehan’s been all over the rock n’ roll scene since the ’70s.
His death came just hours after the curtain went down on U2’s first of 5 concerts at the Forum in L.A.
