Very sad news. I knew that Kevin had fallen on hard times but, as this article
requests, I will refrain from speculation about the cause of Kevin's death.
Instead, I will wait for the autopsy results. And I pray that he is safe with
God.

QUIET RIOT Singer Reportedly Found Dead In His Las Vegas Home - Nov. 26, 2007

Michael Politz of The Vegas Eye reports that QUIET RIOT frontman Kevin DuBrow
was found dead in his Las Vegas home on Sunday, November 25. According to
Politz, DubRow — whom Politz calls "one of my closest friends" — recently
celebrated his 52nd birthday in New Orleans "where he ate great food and even
caught THE CULT at The House of Blues."



Although there has been no official statement on the matter, bassist Kelly
Garni, who was one of the founding members of QUIET RIOT, has posted the
following message on the Randy Rhoads (late QUIET RIOT/OZZY OSBOURNE guitarist)
web site RandyRhoads.tk:



"I ask this to all of you not only for myself but for other friends and family.
I ask that no one here offer any speculation or opinions, theories or other
things that could be construed as negative or, and I'm sorry for this, even
sympathetic, right at this immediate time. I am already within hours of this
having to deal with untrue rumors and speculation and that only adds fuel to
that. There is a tendency for the subject of Kevin to incite flames on every
board and now is not the time for that. I will explain to everyone here the
facts and the truth in the next 24 to 48 hours as I realize this will effect us
all. So please, until then, be patient. All details and other pertinate info
will be passed on to you here when it becomes available to me. Thank you."
