Not the biggest Quiet Riot fan but this is quite sad. My favorite of theirs was Band Your Head. RIP Kevin Dubrow

I don't see how people can have an "accidental" coke overdose unless they bought coke that was cut with something you're not supposed to snort into your brain. I had a non-fatal coke overdose and you definitely know when you go from "high" to "sick".

But rock stars are probably getting really potent stuff, so I can see them overdosing on it... but you definitely know when it doesn't feel good anymore, so what I don't see is how you would keep doing it. Oh well, Quiet Riot was pretty bad ass. Sucks that this happened to Kevin.
