If you're reading this then you're here for the same reason as me. I'm very sad but will remember him as the legend he was. Forever a legend for his contributions to metal
Yep, I came here to say RIP Mike. I'm from WA state and watched them from the beginning and can't beleive they lost another lead singer, David was hard enough to lose. Thanks for posting.......
Blasting this from my speakers hoping he's looking down smiling, knowing whatever battles he faced were not worth what he did... never forget to talk to someone and express yourself r.i.p
Goddamn he still sounded great! To sing that set at his age with such precision is simply amazing. Badlands... What a showman during the bridge section to the solo. Rest in peace, Mike. Your voice will never be forgotten.
I'm literally crying over the HUGE loss of Mike Howe 💔 Rest In Power! Thank you for being a pioneer and performing for so many decades. Your voice/music will Live On Forever 🥺
Mike Howe has the right amount of dirt and aggression in the voice. The pressure is right and the dynamics fit. Vocal range is exorbitant. Stage presence and interaction with band and audience is perfect. Hats off!
It's mind-blowing to me that this man could sing a song like "In Mourning" and take his own life. You just never know what lies deep in anyone's soul and what kind of pain could prompt an act like this.
I think he may have felt likethe 'kids" in the song at some point in his life. I also heard he had gotten a divorce so who knows what was goin on.... RIP MH
I was seriously shocked to hear Mike had passed. I came hear to remember Mike at his best and what he truly loved to do. I was truly excited when he came back to sing for Metal Church. He was a true Metal Church God and a very underrated Vocalist. R.I.P Mike, I’ll always remember the impact you made on me.
Yes most metal vocals change -not usually for the better but Mike's voice is just frozen in time. I was so happy when it was announced he was back in the band.
Living by the numbers. Such a great song. In the video Mike truly looked like a wall street guy who was sick of the Rat Race of Capitalism. Great video. Kudos to all The guys in Metal Church. Rat pack records & My Prayers for Mike Howe, His Family, Friends, and His Awesome Bandmates.
I saw the band in July 2019 in Germany in a small club, capacity maximum 1000 people, the mood was very good from the beginning it's due to Mike Howe, a charismatic singer with a unique voice in hard rock/heavy metal. We should never forget that. A great human died to early. R.I.P
RIP Mike Howe of Metal Church. Exceptional vocalist, my condolences to familaires and friends, your legacy will remain, thank you so much for everything Master Mike hoWE, rest in peace!
This is so hard to watch. I am nearly in tears. In the aftermath... some of his lyrics sure hit differently. Whatever battles he was fighting... I wish we could have been there, swords in hand alongside him. RIP, Mike. Thanks for being amazing!
many of his singings were so up and wonderfull even watching his performance can never , think he would or could do this to his fans i have followed this bunch from ship of fools this is my favorite band
Much love to Metal Church and RIP Mike Howe. Great band. Have loved them since watching watch the children pray on MTV headbangers ball early 80's! Best days. Some of the best metal music ever. Keep rocking guys. Rochester-NY
My friend brought a bootleg cassette of The Human Factor back from a holiday in Bulgaria. Never looked back. Respect to Mike Howe; massively underrated...
I am glad for things like this. At least we still have Mike in some small way though his talent and body of work. If you need to talk, reach out, call someone, tell them you are in crisis for fucks sake, don't just assume nobody cares or doesn't need you. There will never be another "you". You are not replaceable...
Gran tristeza, que en paz descanse Mike!!! excelente voz, glorioso regreso a Metal Church, grandes discos, todo un carácter y gran talento musical, nuestras condolencias desde Argentina, te extrañaremos Mike!!!
Metal Church will never be the same without Mike Howe. An Amazing set here and the guy just nails every song. His legacy is cemented with Metal Church among the best of the best.
i just cant see metal the same way without you Mike, wy o wy,,go and plunder the stars my beloved iconic bastard of metal.i feel very sad for your departure.
R.I.P. Mike Howe, we will miss you. Thx for all metal you made.
Yes we do.....
And RIP David Wayne too
David Wayne & Mike Howe [ Forever Metal Church] 🤘🤘🙏🙏
He was the true metal church vocalist
And now Kirk Arrington.
If you're reading this then you're here for the same reason as me. I'm very sad but will remember him as the legend he was. Forever a legend for his contributions to metal
I’m so devistated!! I just wanna push the button to reset!!

It is shocking, it seems like they were firing on all cylinders.
The voice & energy that Mike Howe brought to the table was so incredibly underrated. Love to his family, friends, & bandmates. ❤🙏
Goddamn he still sounded great! To sing that set at his age with such precision is simply amazing. Badlands... What a showman during the bridge section to the solo. Rest in peace, Mike. Your voice will never be forgotten.
I never really knew how much Mike sounds like Midnight from Crimson Glory.. RIP Mike..
@@crimsonskies1445 Very true, I never put that together. Midnights voice was one of a kind!
Wherever Mike is right now, I hope He is out of pain and resting in peace! 🤘
I'm literally crying over the HUGE loss of Mike Howe 💔 Rest In Power! Thank you for being a pioneer and performing for so many decades. Your voice/music will Live On Forever 🥺

God I love metal church ...fuck yeah

In Mourning.....rest in peace Mike...Godspeed
James Hetfield used to have that dirt, and aggression in his voice back in the 80's .
One of the most underrated bands ever
