RIP Mike Peters. Alarm front man Mike Peters passed away Monday (4/28) following a courageous 30 year battle with blood cancer. Inspired by attending a 1976 Sex Pistols concert, Peters formed a group dubbed the Toilets and, subsequently, teamed with Eddie MacDonald, Dave Sharp and Nigel Buckle aka Twist to form a group called Seventeen, which later morphed into the Alarm.
