Slaughter was back behind a microphone as the band performed on the Dick Clark's Halloween Special from Universal Studios in Hollywood, California. The four continued to tour with the Damn Yankees until midway through the 1993 season. In September 1992, Dana Strum hosted a Rockline show filling in for Bob Coburn, when his special guests were Joe Satriani and his band and Bonham. After receiving the most media attention for their second CD effort, the band began to make arrangements to work on their next Chrysalis release. 1995–1998: Fear No Evil The writing of Fear No Evil, Slaughter's third studio album, in Las Vegas seemed to start out like all other records thus far. Later, the band found a studio in Los Angeles that they really liked. However, they were informed it wasn't available. Instead of looking for another place, they bought the building and all the equipment and named it "Slaughterhouse". Later, when the album was finished, they moved everything out of the building and "it no longer exists". Meanwhile, in March 1993, midway into writing, guitarist Tim Kelly and then tour manager were arrested in Las Vegas by drug enforcement officials for a six-plus-year-old charge involving narcotics trafficking. From this point, until the record was completed, it was under question if Tim Kelly would ever tour with the band again. A trial was held in Philadelphia where the band testified on behalf of their bandmate and "he got off on all charges". In July, to make matters worse, Strum's dirt bike was struck by a drunk driver within a half-mile of his house in Las Vegas, Nevada, causing 17 broken bones including his left wrist and two fingers on the left hand he plays bass with. He later admitted that if he hadn't been wearing a helmet he'd be dead. Things began to improve again in December 1993, when the band headed to South America and began 1994 touring, this time as headliners, in the Midwest. Fear No Evil was completed in February 1994, followed by the tour with Damn Yankees that started that same month. By that time, the band's record label, Chrysalis, was sold to EMI. At first, the band saw it as "a very positive thing". Speaking about that management change, Mark Slaughter asserted: "They understand the music we make, and they can expose us to people that like the kind of music we play".
