Bay Area Backstage remembers Kevin Dubrow
Metal Pioneer who wrote Bang your Head and
that became the Metal Anthem that started the
major label Metal Signing madness that Hit
the 1980's. Without Kevin Dubrow and Quiet
Riot you would not have Metal or at least
what we Define as Metal and 80's Rock
Period."I can remember seeing QUIET RIOT live
at various arenas in the Bay Area and one
show I will never forget — QUIET RIOT at
the Omni at the height of the PEARL JAM
flannel, I-am-cooler- than-you
-because-I-wear -Doc-Martins,
I-am-too-cool-for -metal-or- anything-that
-does-not-fit- my-trend [era] — yeah, that
time, you trendy fucks. So back to the Omni
in the '90s. The metal masses came out in
force to see QUIET RIOT in Oakland — yep,
all 20 of us. It was a horrible turnout, but
the ones who did show up caught the original
lineup doing all the hits. Like a private
concert for those lucky enough to venture
into Oakland's mean streets.
"QUIET RIOT paid their dues and even bucked
trends and lasted 'till this day in November
— the day I found out Kevin DuBrow passed
away.
"I can remember him being larger than life
and very funny, with a quick wit and always a
story. He was a friend to the show and a true
gentlemen.
"I will crank up the tunes and bang my head
like it was the '80s again. Yep, dust off my
metal spikeband and remember my teen years.
How they were filled with angst and
rebellion. The only thing that got me threw
those teenage years was my love for metal and
music.
"Thanks, Kevin. Cheers!! R.I.P., brother."

| Kevin DuBrow of Quiet Riot 1999 Interview (Part 1) |
 |
This interview took place on Saturday October
2nd 1999 in the game room of the "Tap Room"
located in the Historic Fitger's Complex in
downtown Duluth, this is Part 1 of the
interview.
Local Public Access TV personalities Jonny D
& Kenny K were asked by the late John
Bonneville, owner of the Tap Room to conduct
an interview of the band. It turned out to be
just one band member, vocalist Kevin Dubrow,
Kevin was outstanding we joked with him, he
was friendly, seemed very relaxed and willing
to talk, which he did very well revealing
some long lost kept secrets, like Duluth
being the very first city the band played as
they began a tour with The Scorpions. Kevin
Dubrow was not a household name amongst rock
singers but the songs he sang and his vocals
are undoubtedly one of the most recognizable.
And in this interview you'll understand how
much he loved what he did and how much his
friends and his family meant to him. We hurt
knowing he's passed away, but we are so damn
glad that he took some time to hang with a
couple of "average guys" and talk about a
marvelous life he was living.
