I'm just curious... how many Rock/Metal musicians can we come up with collectively--who started out singing for themselves--found Christ and wound up singing for Him? If you have any details--along with the names--please share. bounce

Does Dave Mustaine count. Most of us know his story though I wouldn't technically put Deth in the christian music category.
How about Troggy? I would like to hear his story.

Add to the list:
Brian “Head” Welsh (ex-Korn)

I'm not sure if these count as they are still playing in bands that are not exactly Christian:
Nicko McBain (Iron Maiden)
Tommy Aldridge (Ozzy, Pat Travers, Ted Nugent, Whitesnake, etc.)

I'm sure some would disagree, but according to Sheman Nugent's book, 'Married to a Rock Star', Ted Nugent is also a believer.

Tommy Aldridge? Cool...
