our big Iron Angel family has lost another one of it´s members as our longtime bassist and friend of Dirk´s since the early 80s, Didy Mackel, has passed away this morning. Not only was he the one responsible for convincing Dirk to put the band back together in 2014, he also brought in the two guitar players to round out the line-up, thus making the Iron Angel reunion possible in the first place. His cheerful and enthusiastic persona has often been a guiding light to us, even in our darkest of times and his wisdom and seemingly limitless patience has more than once been the glue to hold us all together. The world has not only lost an incredible bass player, but also a wonderful human being.
Rest in peace Didy Mackel (1961 – 2026)

Didy spielte erst seit drei Jahren bei Black Hawk, war zuvor aber bereits bei den Bands Mania, Not Fragile und Iron Angel aktiv und hat die Szene über viele Jahre geprägt.
Wir stehen alle noch unter Schock und können es kaum fassen.
Unser tiefes Mitgefühl gilt seiner Familie und seinen Angehörigen. Wir wünschen ihnen in dieser schweren Zeit viel Kraft.
R.I.P. Didy
Wir werden dich vermissen und dich niemals vergessen. Wir sehen uns auf der anderen Seite wieder.
