Let's make this birthday one to remember.

63 years old (Born on February 23, 1962)

Happy birthday to Michael Wilton, guitar wizard extraordinaire and co-founder of the legendary Queensrÿche! Celebrating another trip around the sun means you're officially aged like a fine vintage amplifier—still loud, still electrifying, and absolutely timeless. From epic solos in "Eyes of a Stranger" to ripping it up with side projects like Soulbender, you're proof that rock legends never fade; they just find new ways (and occasionally lost picks) every year.

Whether shredding on stage or exploring progressive soundscapes offstage—you've always got fans head-banging happily along. So blast those candles away as effortlessly as your riffs blow minds daily—just be careful not to set your strings ablaze this time! Rock on forever young at heart: Happy Birthday Michael!
