the sad truth is after milis accident, steelheart didnt do as well as they used to
the original members never played together after that and the third and fourth albums werent that great as opposed to the first and second one steelheart wont be the same unless the members reunite and if they find someone as good as john on the drums
@HeavyMetalNoize on halloween 1992 mili they were opening for another band
mili being the rockstar that he is was jumpin all over the place and climbin stuff like he usually does
ufortunately, he climbed a 1000 lb lighting truss that wasnt properly secured. it fell on top of mili and he wasin recovery for a long time. the other guys needed to work and they couldnt wait for him to recover so they all had to split up
look up steelheart accident on youtube youll see what im talkin about
@HeavyMetalNoize halloween 1992: matijevic was climbing a lighting truss while they were playing dancing in the fire. he wanted to entertain the croud by doing crazy tricks and jumpin around, usual frontman stuff. the lighting truss wasnt properly secured and it fell on top of him. thats 1000lbs of steel... he was out of commission for a while and he got the band back together and somehow, he can still sing great
You soaked-up everything I had to teach you John. You always made me proud. You always made me laugh- I will always be your very honored drum teacher-and I know you loved your son, who will carry on.
Pure Talent, John i'll remember you as a free spirit, you cherished your Dad's picture and your platinum album, both hanging over your desk, you were a gifted musician and I am glad I got the chance to meet you; most of all I remember you as a caring father.
Chris Risola is REALLY good. Had Steelheart been a bigger name, you would hear all about Risola ALL THE TIME. Great band which broke up after a tragic accident. Hopefully they reunite and make a GOOD cd unlike that "Just A Taste EP" shit.
How old was John Fowler when he passed away from a brain aneurysm?
