Biography

John Thomas "Sib" Hashian, born August 17, 1949 in Boston, Massachusetts, USA, was an American musician, best known as a drummer for the rock band Boston. He was married to Suzanne Johnson and is the father-in-law of actor/wrestler Dwayne Johnson. They had one son, Adam Hashian, and two daughters, songwriter Aja Hashian and singer-songwriter Lauren Hashian, who appeared as a contestant on the reality series R U the Girl in 2005. They also had two grandchildren, Tiana Johnson and Jasmine Johnson. He starred in music videos such as Boston: More Than a Feeling (1976), Boston: Don't Look Back (1978), and Boston: A Man I'll Never Be (1978). He was featured in clips on the Opie and Anthony Show and was the original and longest standing co-host for Scorch's PFG-TV, a controversial talk show in the New England area, hosted by Scorch. His most popular episode was alongside actor/comedian, Steve Sweeney, who Scorch tricked into coming on his show and, for that reason, he was, infamously, ignored by Steve Sweeney and only spoke to Sib Hashian. He passed away on March 22, 2017 while in Nassau, Bahamas, from a heart attack, after collapsing in the middle of a set while performing on board a cruise ship, the Independence of the Seas.
