RIP Kevin Dubrow

Punchy

Slacker Supreme
Have you guys seen "The Charismatic Voice?" I like her videos, probably not for all, but this one just dropped today and I thought of all our Quiet Riot faithful here. I got to see them once, in a tiny ballroom in a small college town, it was fucking badass. They pulled no punches despite the small venue.

 
Last year my wife got free tickets to one of those "Legends of Rock" ensemble shows where they have a backing band that gets fronted by various singers, one of which was simply billed on the advertisement as "The singer from Quiet Riot".

I was like " AGAIN!?!?"

Turns out it was the replacement guy I never knew existed. He was the most confusing of them all. Most guys had still incredible voices, including him, but his schtick with flirting with the backing singers in a wig at like 70 years old and acting like those songs were "his" was embarrassing.

That hairband stuff skipped me. Got married in 79. had my first kid in 83 and graduated college in 87 so I was a little busy...
 
I saw them back in the day with Carlos on guitars. I think Armored Saint opened for them.
I saw Armored Saint open for Saxon a few years ago. They were good. They opened for Michael Schenker a couple of months ago. I missed that show.
