Chris Holmes Needs Our Help Right Now

The Hair Metal Guru | July 30, 2026



Former W.A.S.P. guitarist Chris Holmes is facing one of the toughest battles of his life after his recent cancer diagnosis. In this video, we discuss why Chris has become such a beloved figure in the rock and metal community, how the Mean Man documentary changed so many fans’ perceptions of him, and why so many people are rallying around him during this difficult time.

Here’s the link to Chris’ GoFundMe:

    Wow, more unfortunate news. I just watched the Tom Keifer Video and now this. I've been a W.A.S.P. fan since the early 80's, when I was just a little kid.Chris is probably the most under rated guitarist on the planet, and is an extreme talent. That being said, with everything he has been through in life, Chris should already be dead. To say he is a fighter is an understatement. He already beat throat cancer several years ago, and now he has another battle to face. You got this Chris, and everyone who reads this, please give to the go fund me, even if it's a dollar. Every little bit helps, and can go a long way. Chris was a major influence on me as a guitar player, and although Patrick mentioned KFD (which is absolutely great), the Headless Children is an absolute masterpiece from top to bottom. I'm rooting for you Chris and will be going to the go fund me page after writing this.

    Thanks for doing this fof Chris Holmes. He's the man. I just don't like the way you supported or support twump. Because at this staff in the game it's either of 3 things.racist , moron, or cult member. And I can't accept that. However. Good job doing THIS.
    I wasn't really impressed with Tuff show. Because the sound guy gad singers mic too hot and he couldn't regulate his voice right without overpowering it so he held back to compensate for it. And it messed it up.
    I hope the sound guy fixed it by the end but.
    i couldn't watch til that point.

    With Chris Holmes diagnosis…it depends on his PSA level (which is measured through a blood or urine test)…the highest your PSA level should go to is 4.00…I was diagnosed with prostate cancer…my level was 5.7…I had radiation treatment for a period of 4 to 6 weeks & that cleared it up…these days my PSA level is only 0.48…but I wish Chris Holmes best wishes in his battle with prostate cancer
