Members Flogger59 Posted February 9, 2010 Members Share Posted February 9, 2010 I met him backstage on the Holy Diver tour. I was dropping off a Duncan pu, and we chatted for a minute or two while he noodled on his black Les Paul. Seemed like a nice, ordinary kid.

Members ChrisGansz Posted February 9, 2010 Members Share Posted February 9, 2010 Bad Karma bit Ronnie James Dio in the ass... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faber Posted February 9, 2010 Members Share Posted February 9, 2010 maybe he decided that it's more fun to play well crafted pop songs than shred - I'm not a DL fan by any means, but they put together some catchy songs. Either that or the DL is a steady job which = security. The same kind of thread could be made for Steve Morse and his Purple gig btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JoJo68 Posted February 9, 2010 Members Share Posted February 9, 2010 Bad Karma bit Ronnie James Dio in the ass... Actually Campbell has been spewing {censored} about Dio for years, this is the first time Dio ever said anything bad about him that I know of.

Members Engl Kramer Posted February 9, 2010 Members Share Posted February 9, 2010 Are these clips the good stuff? I know its dated but it doesn't sound even vaguely musical to me (I'm a metal fan of 25 years). Does he play a violin with his foot as well?

Not sure what you consider the good stuff but his solos in rainbow in the dark and don't talk to strangers are brilliant, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probaly me using the wrong nomenclatura for it - I've always considered dio, or rather the playin on his albums to be mastrubatory in a way i associate with shred (my bad), whereas DL is a pop band through and through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Engl Kramer Posted February 9, 2010 Members Share Posted February 9, 2010 I'm not talking about Dio dude. I listened to it then too and I saw him (Dio) live - he kicked ass. But to me the solos in these clips are woeful. Its just my opinion, just sounds like Kirk Hammet to me. And killer tone? Really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members CrackerD Posted February 9, 2010 Members Share Posted February 9, 2010 He was pretty cool with Dio though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mav64 Posted February 9, 2010 Members Share Posted February 9, 2010 He suffers from what they call on DinosaurRockGuitar.com "ALD" (Alex Lifeson Disease, once kick-ass players who now for whatever reason refuse to kick ass anymore) other notable sufferers include Gary Moore and anyone else who gave up rocking to play the blues....

Members igge Posted February 9, 2010 Members Share Posted February 9, 2010 Nothing wrong with the blues. Without it we wouldn't even have rock. Or metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
