It's not for everyone, but if you put aside PURPLE, and give it a go, you should find it very well done and also very versatile in respects to various genres. The more I listen, the more I like it. You can't go wrong by purchasing it. Unless of course you are a tightwad like Priest......he he he.... Cheers Bill,

Those year long tours can kill you and truly kill your voice! Ian is what 63 now? and he can still deliver the goods, but shorter tours with a little more rest would work better. Why not write more music???? It's hard to wait 2 or 3 yrs for new tunes! As for Whitesnake, It's been 97 Restless Heart, and of course the 01 solo CD. Personally I would like more product to listen to.

It's either current or trivia. Current today, trivia tomorrow. There are many factions of both. My point was that the bickering between members of the band is really nothing to get one's panties in an uproar about. Those issues really are the emotional concepts that They feel and no one can really judge the validity of it. Plus...who cares who said what and who did what. In the end, what shows up on the Album or at the Show is all that one should concern themselves with. Actual information regarding the Band and their plans are worthy in interviews and discussion, but wanking on about a cat fight within the band is useless to me, and in all reality to anyone,,,,,, Cheers The trivia here is just that.

I can guarantee that much, let's hope Whitesnake will get equal playing time, because Priest is not really doing much business anymore, as I've mentioned lately Snakes GTBB cd has surpassed the 300.000 mark without much help from the Record Company or airplay. I did hear Lay Down your Love quite a bit off of the Radio Station The Bear 105.3 Blacksburg Va. for awhile, but mostly we still get Here I Go Again, Still of the Night, Love an't no Stranger, Slow & Easy, thats about it!!

I gave him the last chance to convince me last december here in Copenhagen....he flunked miserabely! According to Sweden Rock Magazine the metal queer ( sorry...GOD?? )Rob Halford should retire! It´s so sad ones old heroes making such fools of themselves! Where´s the integrity,pride and self criticism, or is it just a case of milking the last buck???? Nahh, I think I just sit this one over and take a stroll down memory lane, remembering the WS gig in Stockholm in `81 and the Priest gig in the same city in `84......GOD, those were truly the days!! Now, where´s that "Come an´Get it " CD....??? ROCK ON!!! Until I have total confirmation of DC´s vocal condition I´ll stay at home! I gave him the last chance to convince me last december here in Copenhagen….he flunked miserabely!

I'm thinking White River, WA, most likely... just a two and a half hour drive. I doubt they'd play any closer to this neck.
