Never heard of the guy, so looked him up. Dude was 93 and he was around for the beginning of those clubs. I initially figured it was just someone who took it over after the heyday. I'm thinking he played a bigger part in the history of "hair metal" than he gets credit for.

I'm sure CEO and other around here have some cool stories about him.

RIP. I assume he was a relative of Mario, the also deceased previous Rainbow owner? Hopefully someone else in the family can step in and take over the business.

Mikeal is Mario's son...

Mario died in May 2017 at age 93...

Hearing Mikeal was 73... his son is Mikeal as well, known as "Big Mike"...

And also heard, that Mario's wife, Mikeal's mother died earlier in the year.

Ah, thanks! Maybe Big Mike will be the next in line to run the business. I’d hate for a couple of legendary venues like that to close down.

That's very sad.
He was a really nice guy, much like his dad.

Too soon! I'm being serious and I know Mikeal was 73 but I'm wondering if the pending lawsuit of one of Ron Jeremy's accusers didn't help speed up the heart attack process? That has to be incredible stressful on The Rainbow Family as Ron did seem protected there.
