This from ultimateclassicrock.com; Tim Tronckoe/ Foreigner One of classic rock’s greatest songwriting teams will be celebrated in June when Foreigner guitarist Mick Jones is inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame with his former longtime collaborative partner, vocalist Lou Gramm.

Very sad news. Here's more from Classic Rock; Long-time Uriah Heep bassist and Spiders From Mars icon Trevor Bolder has died of cancer at the age of 62, it’s been confirmed. He’d been locked in a battle with the disease for years, but it finally sidelined him from work in February. Bolder joined David Bowie’s backing band in 1971, alongside guitarist Mick Ronson – with whom he’

Always interesting how a different position in the hall/personal opinions differ. I was there last night too.

Should also say, poorly handled by City. Almost as shabby as the way Mark Hughes lost his job to, er, Mancini.

That's the sort of sacking we could all do with - multi million pound contract paid up and you can walk away. Football eh, bloody hell. Also, whilst we are on the footie banter, where's that MCFC poster when you need him? The Forza revolution has begun eh...

You're right about that Steve. DAB has always struggled to compete with a good FM signal sonically. Is the web stream likely to be any improvement? Sound aside, nice to have another outlet promoting rock.

Duff sound quality aside(it's that filming at gigs chestnut again), when Brian Johnson finally packs it in, Angus and Malcolm could do worse than follow JRNY, get on YouTube and get this guy in! Spaniards I gather. A cracking riff too isn't it. http://youtu.be/IkNqpj4ZmdI

This from Dave's blog. He is a tremendous supporter and fan of this genre; Friday 12th April It’s pretty shocking to think that three years have flown by since my last live sighting of the Swedish melodic hard rockers H.E.A.T, then still with their previous singer Kenny Leckremo, in a Holloway boozer called The Gaff. I admit, their decision to appoint Erik Grönwall, a former Swedish Id
