I’m very bummed to hear that Ronnie James DIO died. I really loved his vox. Saw him live with Black Sabbath twice. He had one of the coolest voices in early metal.
He brought Vinney Appice’s cool, solid drumming style to my attention as well.
RIP DIO
Important Message to our Fans
It was always our pleasure, our purpose in life, our passion and we were fortunate enough to make music for you – whether it was live on stage or in the studio, creating new songs.
While we were working on our album these past few months, we could literally feel how powerful and creative our work was – and how much fun we were still having, in the process. But there was also something else: We want to end the Scorpion’s extraordinary career on a high note. We are extremely grateful for the fact that we still have the same passion for music we’ve always had since the beginning. This is why, especially now, we agree we have reached the end of the road. We finish our career with an album we consider to be one of the best we have ever recorded and with a tour that will start in our home country Germany and take us to five different continents over the next few years.
We want you, our fans, to be the first to know about this. Thank you for your never-ending support throughout the years!
We uploaded the very first snippets from our new album for you.
And now… let’s get the party started and get ready for a “Sting in the Tail”!
See you on the world tour,
Yours
Scorpions
I just heard that a bass player for a band I used to record died. He was sick, like the flu. He was probably in his late 30’s or early 40’s. Not sure if that was a H1N1 death or what. I also suspect drugs were involved.
Either way, too bad for him.
I never saw the light with Michael Jackson and his whiny little girl voice. I also don’t see the fascination losers people have about him.
The big news today on the front page of CNN.com is that Michael Jackson had lethal levels of some sort of drugs in his system.
Gee really? Ya think that’s why he died?
My golf buddies Bowling For Soup have a new video! Cool!
