I heard this also, R.I.P Dusty

I'm also very sad to hear Mike Howe (55) from Metal Church died on the 26/07/2021.  R.I.P Mike, big hero of mine and you will be missed.  Been playing Metal Church this week in your honour.  So happy I got to see you and Metal Church in 2017.

I think I heard ZZ Top will continue on without him.  I guess that is kinda cool.

Just feel so bad for Mike Howe who took his own life.  Actually cannot believe how upset it had made me feel.

May be I shave started my own thread for Mike, sorry for hijacking this Richard.

Metal Church played this (see below) when I saw them in 2017, such a great song.  Their last two studio albums were fantastic and even me the snobbiest metal fan of all time loved them!  Even the more melodic stuff.

Yes, it's a shame we lost Dusty Hill, and Mike Howe.

      This has been a bad year for musicians. We've lost a lot already.
