KIX Announce Ronnie Younkins To Miss Upcoming Shows

Sending well wishes to Kix guitarist Ronnie "10/10" Younkins. He will be missing from some upcoming Kix shows. The band did not explain the absence - but I hope he is focusing on his health. I hope to see Kix live again someday soon.

Second that, Stu and Allyson. Hopefully, he can focus on his health. I wish him and the band well (and still hope to see them live at some point).

Best to the Kix Kryptkeeper! (Love his look)

Just read an article how drug OD’s have skyrocketed in past year. Not assuming drugs are keeping Ronnie out now. But it has in the past.

Yo!!! May is Mental Health Awareness Month. Fuck the stigma and realize it’s a real illness. Just like obesity, sedentary lifestyle and bad diets can lead to amputated legs from severe uncontrolled diabetes over years. Anxiety, sadness and isolation can lead to severe mental illness through the years (or physical illness). It’s vicious peeps. Peace & Love

Great Point Kix Chix -- we all have demons and sometimes they get the best of me - it is a struggle - I wish 10/10 the best and hope he gets the help he needs and comes out the other side.

I've loved Kix ever since seeing them at my first ever club gig at the start of the Blow My Fuse run. (Tora Tora opened, good times) Ronnie is awesome and I wish him nothing but the best! Get well 10/10!

Wow, Fletch! I guess this must be the 10:00 pm show. Is Rickles opening or closing your set?

Eat fresh, Fletch. Eat fresh.

I thought I'd highlight some of his great work rather than the usual, "drug addiction is a bitch" or "we all have demons" type of post. Ronnie is a very talented musician, even outside of Kix, I simply wanted to highlight that, albeit in a (hopefully) humorous type of way. We are posting in an 80's sleaze rock webpage, after all. My apologies to Don Tickets.

Don Tickets is, to be fair, one amazing person. Kudos to you, Fletch, for bringing attention to him!

And, just to be clear: you do you; you do blue. No skin off my teeth. You are a fount of the unexpected!

I wouldn't say it, if it wasn't true. Don't want to be a Tattooed Millionaire.
