My first concert in my life was in 1989 at the Austin Opera House. The headliner band was W.A.S.P., but the opening bands were Accept and Metal Church. It was the most memorable concert that I ever went to. These bands have always been relatable. I love them all!
I met Stet back in the 1980s when he was playing with a band called Run 21. I knew he was destined for great things. Met him at a Run 21 gig one night and blew a joint with him. I'll never forget it. Wicked nice guy and cancer survivor. I have one of Frankie Banali's snare drums. A 1942 concert snare that's now my main snare. Proceeds went directly to the family. Very honored to have it.
Stet is a GREAT guy!! The Metal Church CD he talks about was delayed due to him coming down with Lymphoma around October 2017. He is now in remission and working on the new CD.
Super Cool to watch this. Only saw MC once & Plate gave me pair of sticks after show, ended up staying with that brand/series sticks ever since but just started watching/digging into MC on here again this morn. Looks like an Awesome new(er) fit on Drums!...
Hi Stet. I miss seeing you out playing and then hanging out with you for a coffee after and catching up. Been a long time my old friend. I am talking about the 80's when Stet was still starting out with a bunch of smaller bands. It is great just hearing your voice and listening to you talk about music. Music is my life too, only you live to play it and I live to see it and talk about it. Peace and love. Take care and stay healthy.
Stet is good people. I was honored enough to open for him as a drummer in a band called SAVAGE HEARTS 1996 in a little shithole club in mount airy N.C known at the time as "THE PALACE" When he was working with Rickey Medlocke and he is a truly a gentleman.
I love Metal Church and have never seen them live, back in 2018 a band asked me if I could fill in on bass for a stint of a tour they were gonna do opening for Metal Church, unfortunately it fell through. Wish it would've happened. Would've been awesome
I actually know this guy personally he grew up in my hometown just a down-to-earth person never thought he was better than anyone else would come down to your basement and jam with your band hang out with you and a real great sense of humor Stetson is definitely our hometown hero and we're going back to the Run 21 days you got to remember the weigh stations Stetson and don't forget Jack's up on Mass Ave
IMO!! Stet was (WASP) best drummer (Period) ,coz, 1) Stet has smashed some of the finest drum work ever recorded & 2) I'm still listening to Stet's "OUTSTANDING" performance on #KFD in 2017 #WTG \m/
Doug Aldrich played on The Crimson Idol? I had no idea! I thought all the rhythm guitars were Blackie and all the leads were Bob Kulick. Well, I learned something new today!
RJC 72 If you watch the Blackie Lawless Crimson Idol interview, you will hear him talking about Bob playing 80% of the lead stuff and the rest is Doug Aldrich. If you listen good you’ll be able to hear him for instance on Arena Of Pleasure solo, typical Aldrich solo!
Stet told me he worked with WASP 🐝 for over 17 years. He's the longest playing drummer 🥁 for WASP. Stet Howland is a frontman all by himself. I played with Stet many times. Every show, he took over. He stands up and walks around his kit 🥁, never missing a beat. He holds front and center stage at a table with drink bottles 🍾 filled at different levels. Plays songs tapping them with the drum sticks. He'll perform solo for a full hour 🍾 🥁 ☺ ☆STET HOWLAND☆ IS AMAZING! (I just hope you see this plug William Stetson)
Stet during the Sting tour do you remember me asking you at the Newport in Columbus Ohio before we opened up for you what your favorite song was and you told me " dirty balls" I replied hells yes! 💪

Great to hear his continued passion for Metal Church, from supporter, to stand-in to full member. So glad they are still touring.

Incredible drummer, Nuff said!
Great guy and great drummer. Loved his time in W.A.S.P., and I managed to see him this Summer at Graspop with Metal Church.
Great interview! Best drummer I've seen, It would be awesome to see a Metal Church concert! Wishes for a speedy recovery Stet.

Arrington has been and always be one of my favorite drummers I’m glad stet got the gig he’s a cool dude and can play those drums!!!
I love what stet Howland brought to the band. He really jammed out on the new record congregation of annihilation.
Doug Aldrich played on The Crimson Idol? I had no idea! I thought all the rhythm guitars were Blackie and all the leads were Bob Kulick. Well, I learned something new today!

This dude has talent up the ass! I have always dug his work
They don’t make drummers like this anymore.
I've met Stet a lot of times. Really nice guy!
U will Alwyas rock,Stet,,,knew u since 2005, Biscuit band and huge fan of wasp, old fan of yours!!!
Stet is without question the best drummer Blackie has had in W.A.S.P.
Frankie
Tony Richards!
Nah man. Frankie on The Headless Children. That’s drumming.
Steve Riley
Get well soon my brother!
I don’t even remember this dude out of WASP. Definitely not my WASP era that’s for sure.
aye, same, i was Last command and electric circus kid in the 80's
He played on half the WASP Crimson Idol album Frankie Bannali played on the other half.
Stet told me he worked with WASP 🐝 for over 17 years. He's the longest playing drummer 🥁 for WASP.

☆STET HOWLAND☆ IS AMAZING!
(I just hope you see this plug William Stetson)

Chris Holmes said he would not do a wasp reunion
