Oh yeah and the New steelheart was at the same venue, plus the other guys just happenned to show up, I got to sing a few lines, pretty cool stuff, sorry if I'm rambling I just smoked a litttle to much. Haha
Yea John was my dad and just to clarify one more show was performed by the original lineup in 07 because johns other band smoke was opening up for drowning pool, anyway he probably just kept playing because they wanted to take all the focus off Mike.
The thing fell on top of him and A guitarist Starts smashing his guitar, the other guy who was playing the solo keeps playing with the drummer. Only i see 3 or 4 people trying to help.
Uhm..? This is a little weird. The drummer kept playing, and that other guy (the bassist I think) just smashes all the things on stage instead of helping Mili. Anyway, I'm so glad he survived. :)

AWESOME!! THE METAL GOD GO SMASH ON YOU!!!!!! See? Try to play 80's music when it's clearly NOT the 80's anymore, and the metal gods will take it from you...... They all should have died by plane crash or Vodka-Pill combo (FATALITYYYYYY!!!!!) OD by now.
@jbennizzle excuse me, this is the 2nd Steelheart video I have seen you post some stupid, negative shit on...WTF is your issue? And why are you watching the videos if ya feel that way about them? Thats some fucked up shit to say, especially since these guys don't do the whole "vodka-pill" thing....wow....:/
@MegaAcdcrocks1 "Lol"? Jesus Christ, have some fucking respect. I can't imagine the things he's gone through after that terrible accident. And a real tragedy for music that it resulted in the end of the original Steelheart. Steelheart are my favourite band ever, and I would have loved to have seen what they could have come up with after Tangled in Reins. The new Steelheart is a waste of Mike's talent.
Yesterday, it was exactly 19 years since this accident happened. R.I.P. Steelheart.
@lllhOoLiGaNlll I agree completely. Im glad that he survived of course. But, I definitely like the "old better" Steelheart. Such an awesome talent. I was sry to hear abt John Fowler(drummer) passing away in 2008. Way too young to be leaving this world. I always heard he was a really nice down to earth guy. R.I.P. John R.I.P.the old Steelheart too.
I was looking for footage of this. Too bad the drummer is now dead, but fortunately Steelheart is still around today, just not recognized enough. The only original members are Miljenko and Chris...Mili can still belt out high notes too.
The bass player went flippin crazy!!! He must have known it was OVER for Steelheart then!!! The other guys didnt get the memo though.................Mili rocked then and still rocks
Mili's story is a heartbreaking one... soon after he recovered from this accident, his mother died. That's when he decided to drop the stage name "Mike" and go back to his old name, to honor his heritage. His voice rocks my world each time I listen to his songs. My hero
@industrialapotheosis amazing video. So glad he survived to make more music. He's so da' man in my book, my favorite vocalist, and I'm vindicated in that Ray Manzarek and Robbie Kreiger chose Mili to replace Jim Morrison as vocalist for the Doors. What an honor that is!
@industrialapotheosis just to let you know that is the singer that is going ape crazy on stage he walked off and blacked out it use to be on his website under his bio page
@RioZLander - no, the guy wigging out on stage is one of the guitarists (the bassist I think). You even see him take his guitar off & start smashing things. The guy freaking out on stage is wearing shorts & Mili was wearing pants. He walked off stage & was rushed to the hospital - he didn't have a meltdown on stage.
@PauloSimmonsStanley John Fowler was the only one staying cool through all this, he isn't dumb. everyone else is trippin and he stayed cool. R.I.P. John Fowler.
@PauloSimmonsStanley for one thing is the roadies that are responsible for this unfortunate accident, not the band members. these roadies and tech's, get paid well to make sure all riggins are in place and secure and etc...
@Clarensee because he was a pro...you never stop playing even if the worst (like this) happens. The bass player went crazy breaking his guitar and amp because he lost his cool and knew his singer was seriously injured. That didn't help the situation.
OMG!!!!! I cannot believe I finally found this! Have heard of this accident but could never find any footage of it.....Amazing he survived that and is still ROCKIN today!!!! LOVE MILI!!!!!! xoxoxoxoxo
@FireRacer09 oh absolutely the best! totally agree! He sounds exactly like he did 20 years ago! I would love to see them....even more to meet Mili...I am such a Steelheart dork! LMAO!!!
He is James Ward ( bass )... The first thing we saw is the guy destroying everything But the most WTF is all others integrants keep playing... That was awesome the accident and Mili walk alive after that!!! Miljenko Matijevic is one of the best singer of all the time!!!
@FireRacer09 That bass guy is such an asss!!! Btw the band is playing because they realy dont realise what is going on ... the drummer didnt saw the accident !! Why did Ward started destroying?
Well really the accident was to fast to see what is happening ( if you are playing )... Mmm maybe Ward thinks he was Ritchie Blackmore and destroy all the stuff LOL ( joke ).... Seriously Ward was crazy in that moment... After the years they say why ?
wait so i dont get it why did steelheart breakup?? 1:53
