Prog Shred, your information on Dave Mustaine is incorrect. He couldn't have been in Metallica in 1980, because Metallica wasn't formed until 1981, and Mustaine didn't join until early 1982. He was, however, in a band called Panic in 1980. That was going to be my answer, in fact. :)

Status Quo was friends of Kevin Debrow. One of the guys in that band came up with the name Quiet Riot. I don't know anything about Velvet Fox.
