“This is so hard to find the words to express fully how we feel. We can’t believe or accept what’s happened. One minute we’re talking to our buddy, Mike, the next minute we can never speak to him again.

There’s so many things rushing through our heads that we want to say, do and feel. We half expect him to come round the corner and call us ‘dickheads’. We can’t get our heads around it.

It upsets us so much that he was away from his family when this happened, although knowing Mike, we’re at least glad he was on tour doing what he loves.

We’re lost for words. We all miss him so much already. He was such a headstrong, genuinely nice guy who loved music and his family. We’ve got so many brilliant memories with him.

Our hearts go out to his daughter, family and friends at this tragic, difficult time.

Mike is much loved and is sorely missed.

Rest in peace, brother.”

Their show here was only a few weeks away too. Shame.

Can't believe it. Only a few weeks after their new album and they were really starting going places with this tour IMO. RIP Mike.

When DC played the Point in April we went to Fibbers first and Evile were playin there that night, heard them soundchecking, they sounded awesome.
Had a beer and a smoke with Mike outside and he was such a nice guy, so enthusiastic and a pleasure to talk to.
Sure he'll be missed

I saw them with Machine Head a few years back, my ex bought the cd and I have many memories of listening to them. Bummer. He was way young!

Ditto, I'd never heard of them before that MH gig and they were nearly as good as the headliners that night!

That MH gig showed me how amazing they were, i now love them...it's actually horrible!!

All i remember leaving that gig was how Gamma Bomb should never have played and Evile should have gotten a longer set!
