RIP Mike Howe, one of the nicest dudes who’s ever come thru my work. he saw me carrying a big folding table for their hospitality and he jumped up and ran over to help. I tell that story all the time because he’s one of the first artists who treated me, working floor, as human. pic.twitter.com/pghlyBiUXp

Just heard the sad news of the passing of Mike Howe. We signed his first band, Heretic to @MetalBlade. Then of course he went onto a great career with @metalchurchis1. Really good guy and gone way too soon. Condolences to his family and friends. #RIPMikeHowe

Fook. Mike Howe, of Metal Church, dead at 55. Just… Fook. I’ve literally been listening to the Mike Howe Metal Church these last few days – and to read this news. Heart Freaking Breaking. He was barely older than I was. 🙁

So sorry to hear of the passing of Mike Howe from @metalchurchis1 I can’t say I knew him well, but I did spend a weekend with him and the band in the studio while they were recording his first album with the band (Blessing In Disguise) back in 1988. Gone way too soon #RIPMikeHowe pic.twitter.com/EpzuSR8nFz
