    The guy was almost bald about five years after their big album.

    An old friend of mine who I don't see as often as I should and I like letting Slick Black Caddy go at full tilt.

    Man I remember first hearing Metal Health amongst Prince, MJ, Madonna, all on Top 40 Radio and thinking how cool the 'Metal Health' riff was. Like the music or not, this band helped pave the way for other LA bands of the time.
    I love to turn you on

    Sad...way too young.

    Metal Health is such a great tune to blast.
    He can jam with Randy Rhoads again at least.

    RIP Kevin....
    Just saw them at a club here a couple years back and had a blast...I remember rockin Metal Health on my walkman, ridin my bmx around as a 10 year old...one of my first albums.
  • jamie ukjamie uk Posts: 3,812
    This may sound odd to you guys, but in my little house in a little mining town in a little valley in Wales, Metal Health could often be heard booming out from my bedroom. I loved them, what was it 84, 85? Never got the chance to see them tough, but loved the records. Its a sad story, and btw, that barnet of Kevs is either a weave or a 'syrup', he was receeding way back in the 80's. RIP.
    I came, I saw, I concurred.....

    QUIET RIOT Drummer Frankie Banali - "With Kevin's Passing A Very
    Large Part Of My Life And My History Has Come To End And I Can't
    Imagine Life Without His Presence"

    Posted on Tuesday, November 27, 2007 at 20:58:04 EST

    QUIET RIOT drummer Frankie Banali has issued the following
    update:

    "I want to thank everyone for the hundreds of condolences that
    I've received in honour of Kevin (DuBrow) which continues to pour
    in. With Kevin's passing a very large part of my life and my
    history has come to end and I can't imagine life without his
    presence.

    I've not slept. There is such a void in every part of my life
    now. I can't find any words to say that make any sense of it. I
    can't fix this, I can't change this and I'm expected accept the
    unbearable. I can't utter a sentence or think of my dear friend
    or even say his name without a flood of tears.

    I can't stand that I won't hear his voice on the phone.
    I can't stand that I won't step on a stage with him again.
    I can't stand that I won't share another day with him.
    I can't stand that I won't sit across from him laughing.
    I can't stand to go past the room and see the awards we earned
    and shared.
    I can't stand that life is forever changed.
    I can't stand that I can't change this.
    I can't stand that I have to accept this.

    This is a picture that Kevin sent to me on May 24, 2007. It was
    taken in 1993 after we had reconciled and started working
    together again and when he sent it to me he called to say that
    this is how he will always like to remember us as friends. A
    relationship in life that continued until now. I want to
    remember my dear Kevin in life like this rather than in his
    passing."

    That's what I said. Didn't anyone give a shit enough about him to realize they hadn't heard from him in SIX days? His fiance'? What was she doing during that time? Does he ordinarily text her at 240am and she does nothing for six days?

    WTF? How did she not know he was a rockstar?

    She knew him for years and was ENGAGED to him but this piece of info never came up? Didn't they do a reunion or something a few years ago?

    Seems strange to me.
