That one I like Rondo!! I think before Temple Of Rock he was planning on doing a Strangers In The Night tour, but I'll definitely add that one to the list.
He also has an interesting theory about the progression and current state of rock music - a la his Temple Of Rock concept. He basically believes rock was built in the 60 and 70's when the foundations were laid by Zeppelin, Purple, Sabs etc and then throughout the late 70's and 80's the walls of the Temple were built and now they have put the roof on - and there's no more building to be done; It's time to celebrate, look back and worship. Which does explain why there are so many retro acts. So I want to discuss this with him. Just wondering if I should ask his opinion on TV talent shows but I reckon he probably wouldn't know American Idol or the X Factor!! :-)
