Thats a shame, always entertaining, even if they did try to take themselves too seriously now and again. Fallen Angel a great driving track..

Indeed. They filled a niche and without their type we would not have the current delights of Steel Panther. You have to respect them for that. Hope he gets well soon.

Saw an interview with him once. He said words to the effect of, this isn't serious music, its music to listen to when you go out and have a beer with your buddies, have a laugh and sing along to. Also saw him in thet Decline of Western Civilisation film and he seemed like a funny enough guy.

iirc he was on a doc about motley crue last week on sat tv.

comes across as a decent guy, and as above not taking it too seriously.

he took live music seriously though - his guitarist cc deville once played half of "unskinny bop" without his guitar plugged in, too high on drugs to notice, brett flipped and the band were on dodgy ground...

I also recall dee snider saying of "every rose.." "it's one frickin chord man, one chord!!!!" pmsl.

This is sad news, I met Brett at a signing on the Native Tongue tour. He was a really nice guy and took time to talk to everyone, even though there was 2000+ people there. He actually shook my hand rather than just taking our stuff and signing it and sending us down the line. Hope he pulls through..
