Steelheart fromtman Miljenko (Mike) Matijevic has issued the following statement:

"Dear friends.

I am deeply sad to say my old friend and the original drummer of SteelHeart, John Fowler, has passed away on Friday March 21 at 11:00pm from a brain aneurism. He will always be with us. We will 'Never Let You Go'. John was a true musician, dedicated to his art. I can't remember a time that John didn't have music to fill his day. I am happy to have shared the stages throughout the world with him. Every night I would climb his crazy massive drum set to reach down into his world and slap his hand for a great show. It will always be with me. Rest in peace my friend we all love you. Fly with the angels. We'll see you on the other side."

I saw that over at the CMR.

Sad news for his family. I understand there may have been some question regarding the faith of some of the band members, but I sure hope for his sake that he was a follower of Christ. I would be nice to meet him someday.
