So it turns out that Kevin DuBrow of Quiet Riot has passed away for reasons unknown (thanks to Chez 106 and Aunt Lois/Uncle Gary who tipped me off on this fact). I’m sure more details will surface but I figured I should bring this update to you.
What can I say? I’m sure that my cousin Troy may have a little more to say on the subject as I seemed to have missed out on the glam metal scene of the 80s – Poison, Quiet Riot, Spinal Tap…all bands that I’m familiar with their music only through the radio and don’t know all the words to.
That being said, I know I was reading in Guitar World that Quiet Riot were touring around even to this date so it’s sad to hear that such a great band has stopped in their tracks for the time being.
One reply on “R.I.P. Kevin DuBrow”
As a lover of glam metal, I am very sad about this.
In other sad rock news, Jimi Hendrix would have been 65 years old today.
