The guitar of Dave Lepard now belongs by a Brazilian guitarist


2013 was a positive year for the hundred of brazilian fans of the band Crashdiet.

In addition to the concerts in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro (09 and march 10 respectively), the guitar that belonged to the first vocalist and guitarist, Dave Lepard, who died in 2006, now belongs to the brazilian guitarist Chris Young.

Dave Lepard was the creator, founder, composer, guitarrist, singer, and leader of Crashdiet, one of the biggest bands of the world of sleaze glam. With this guitar, Dave composed several songs, recorded the Studio álbum Rest in Sleaze, recorded videoclips and did most of the Crashdiet’ s concerts. The guitar is an Ibanez prestige 2570 japanese.

The news was given by Chris Young in his Page inside a relationship website.

"This guitar was with Elizabeth Hellman, Dave Lepard’ s mom, since he died. I know how was dificult for her to get rid of that so precious item of a son that she loved so much. So I feel even more grateful and more honored by the fact it came to me to tell me that I would be the person who should have this guitar. I want that everyone have assured that i will make be worth it! The guitar will not stay on a shelf glass for exposure. I will use it a lot. i will compose, i will do concerts and play many songs of Crashdiet. After all by the words of own Dave’ s mom, she prefers that the guitar be with someone that loves the band and will give a good use of it instead of stay only collecting dust in her home."

Unfortunately Dave Lepard committed suicide in january 20, 2006. In his homage, the first edition of 2014 of the most important sleaze festival of Brazil, held monthly in Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul. Will be in january 4 the festival Sleaze Zone Party #21.

In 2010 during the concert of the swedish band Crashdiet, on inferno club in Sao Paulo, the band featured a cameo by Chris Young, because of his campaign made in orkut by his friends, for him play guitar with the band in the show. Follow the vídeo:


At that time some rumors pointed Chris as a possible new guitarist of Crashdiet, who has only one guitarist since the tragic death of frontman/guitarrist Dave Lepard, because Chris was posting several videos playing all the Crashdiet's songs, beside being  a dedicated fan.


Chris was one of the organizers of Sleazy Party Zone, a hard rock festival which takes place over a year in Porto Alegre, and was also one of the speakers of the radio program Sleaze Zone, web radio Putzgrilla. And even having already disconnected himself from the Sleazy Zone and radio programs, he makes some contributions to the party like DJ, and he also will be at the party on January 4.
