RIP Kevin,,, I never got to meet him, but from what you who met him, he sounds like he was a great guy..... so I messaged one of my buddies who used to jam with him in Quiet Riot,,,, and here's what he said about Kevin,,,, :roll:

"He was the kinda guy that most people would get as far away from as possible."

I guess sometimes people jamming with eachother get on eachothers nerves,,,,,
RIP Kevin!

I'm shocked. Last sunday I was listening Condition Critical on the CD player while I was driving. RIP Kevin.

Never had the chance to see him (the Band) live but I always loved Quiet Riot. Absolutely sad news.

I do recommend Dubrow's coda, the ReHab album.

Pretty good. Almost like Zep/Blues Metal.

Anyword on what the cause of death was? Someone said he had 'some problems', was it drinking?

JEFF SCOTT SOTO: KEVIN DUBROW 'Was A Funny, High-Spirited, Good Guy' - Nov. 28, 2007
(courtesy of Blabbermouth.net)

Legendary hard rock vocalist Jeff Scott Soto (TALISMAN, ex-JOURNEY, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN) has released the following statement regarding the passing of QUIET RIOT singer Kevin DuBrow:

"I met Kevin back in 1986 when QUIET RIOT were on the bill with us (YNGWIE MALMSTEEN) for a few shows in the U.S. He was a funny, high-spirited, overall good guy. Through all that he created his image of the 'mouth that roared,' I found him to be a very endearing and genuine soul. He was a saint then and continued to be such a humble person, always treating me with absolute respect since day one.

"I was a QUIET RIOT fan when the 'Metal Health' album came out and through knowing Kevin & Co, continued to support the guys and their quest to continue the path they set for themselves from the ground up.

"As we drove to soundcheck today here in the UK, I was given the information that Kevin has passed away.

"My deepest condolences go out to his family, those near and dear and especially to the boys in QUIET RIOT. Kevin leaves us with his legacy of work that we should always remember him by and knowing him, he doesn't want us to be sad for his passing, he'd want us to celebrate by 'screaming until our throats bleed!'

"RIP, my friend, we'll meet again!"
