From the Geelong Advertiser:

Founding member of The Meanies rock band Tasman Blizzard died yesterday [August 1] when his car plunged into a dam on the Bellarine Peninsula.

The Point Lonsdale identity, 37, lost control in wet conditions on Swan Bay Rd at Mannerim about 3.10pm.

Witnesses said they saw Blizzard’s blue Ford station wagon spin out of control and cross the centre of the road Police praised the actions of a brave CFA worker who dived into the dam’s murky waters in a vain attempt to save the trapped victim.
