The funny thing is, we actually had a phone call from Dann Huff just over a year ago, and he was quite into the idea of doing the Giant thing again, just for fun ... but the problem was always his schedule and not knowing what he would be doing a year in advance (similarly with David Rosenthal and Red Dawn).

No-one should EVER use the word 'nice' when describing music (almost as bad as 'interesting', LOL)

N.O.W. stands for "Nice Or Wild"? Are you kidding me??!! 90% of names I saw suggested were better than THAT! Oh well ...

Yeah, I thought Cov's vocals were much better than the last twice I'd seen him touring ... a nice surprise (hope no tape syncing).

If you are an AOR band, then sorry, but THIS site is anything but one of "every site on the net". Along with Rocktopia.co.uk, should be the first port of call (IMHO) And if an AOR band doesn't know these sites, then I fear for their promotion ...

Yes Andrew, you surely MUST Email EVERY AOR artist releasing an album and ask them to send you a promo copy. You MUST!! :)

First album was more 'epic' in a Dio way ... LOVED it! 2nd album more commerical .. but still good. I prefer the debut.

But WHY the timing now? Seems to me might be an attempt to hijack Chelsea's idea to bring back Mourinho. Fergie has always been a big fan .. and he DOES bring success ..

>> As long time fans can attest, the quality of Dio's studio albums never wavered throughout the group's near 30-year career. Beg to differ. As a MASSIVE Dio fan from Rising onwards, I think the quality control PLUNGED off a cliff from Lock Up the Wolves onwards ... how many classic tracks were they from that album till the last?

I'd go for RJD... RB's Rainbow Rising Long Live Rock n Roll Heaven And Hell Mob Rules Holy Diver Last In Line Sacred Heart 9 consecutive albums, 3 different bands ... not bad going!

Strangely, when I interviewed Udo last year, he told me his favourite Accept album wasd 'Breaker' (also mine, and one of their most melodic) and his favourite solo album was 'Faceless World' (also the most melodic solo album, with keyboards). Which surprised me also, as he had said he hated the more commercial direction Accept were taking (and it also surprised me the 3 Accept albums after the r

Regarding the last point .. I don't think it was ALL the inhabitants (was it?). Otherwise I was thinking the same ... Still think the comic is better .. though the TV shows is still really really good!

> Previews should never have been issued and there should not be 2 versions of this album. Ever. Some unkind souls might proffer that there shouldn't even be ONE version of THIS album :D

DS9 was criminally under-rated, especially the last 2 seasons. Very dark, and a superb series long story. One thing I hated about ToS and early TNG was the infamous 're-set button' ... no matter what trial the characters went through, everything had to be back to the staus-quo for next episode. But they changed that in later TNG episodes ... I'm STILL shocked they let Riker's duplicate survive

I've just booked a Saturday ticket for a friend for HRH-AOR. £55 ticket is not a bad price .. but £10 booking fee?!!! Is it just me that thinks that's outrageous? What exactly do these "booking fees" cover except lining the pockets of the companies taking the booking?? Bahhh!!!

I've been downloading lots of TV shows on DivX to watch on my DVD player/TV using USB stick, but a lot of sites have stopped offering DivX and only doing mp4 ... but these don't play on DVDs/TVs. Can someone tell my why mp4 is so popular for TV shows and movies? Is this just for watching on PC?

Do NOT do this through Paypal!! The buyer could cancel his payment after the purchase, or lodge a complaint, and Paypal always find in favour of the buyer. If he has Paypal, then it's linked to either his bank account or credit card. So for such a large sum, he should pay directly with his credit card or bank transfer. I've had many issues with buyers lodging complaints mere days after paymen

Ooo.. glad someone mentioned BOC - Fire of Unkown Origin (apart from the last track!!). It's strange how I LOVE this album ... but no other albums by BOC.

Because the hooks and melodies in the choruses are just not there, and too few cool riffs ... 'Lip Service' is right up there amongs my all time favourite albums ... this one nowhere near ... but the still have the ability, cos 'Remember It's Me' is a GREAT song ... I'll await their next album with some interest ...

Is a really good album .. but one song is just sooooo awful it's unlistenable ... can't understand what they were trying there ...
