Former TUFF Bassist Dies Of A Suspected Drug Overdose

April 19, 2005

Former TUFF bassist Danny Wilder has died of a suspected heroin overdose, according to a posting at Metal Sludge (which is headed up by Wilder's former TUFF bandmate Stevie Rachelle). Danny "had finished another rehab stint and was in the process of cleaning up his life when he decided to dabble again," the posting adds. "It cost him his life."

Danny Wilder played bass in TUFF during the 1992-1993 touring years. He also played with Emi Canyon (Nasty Habit of MÖTLEY CRÜE) in a project called ALICE IN THUNDERLAND.

Prior to joining TUFF, Danny was well known on the famous Sunset Strip where he made his name playing with the band PARADISE. Danny was raised in Phoenix, Arizona and had been living there over the last several years.
