MR

I'm sure you'll read this...

I think it's a common knowledge now that you won't seriously consider Hugo or Kevin Chalfant for the JOB.

Dave Bickler, Jimi Jamison, Mickey Thomas, Freddy Curci and Fergie Frederiksen are also out of question for various reasons.

Steve Perry, Steve Augeri and JSS are obviously only a past for you, and you won't return on any of them.

You've dropped Jeremey Hunsicker, and you are now experimenting with Arnel Pineda, but somehow I feel that in the end you won't be happy with him either.

Put an end to this misery, and consider this guy... TERRY BROCK... he's a proven professional, he could pull it off anytime... and he won't take you too much spotlight...

He's currently in band Le Roux, but if you ask him, I doubt he'll refuse...

Why on earth would you wish such a horrendous fate on Terry!?

Somehow I have a feeling he would beat the crap of them if they would pull the games with him like with other guys...

Last year on MR, I saw a list of AOR singers. Included a dude called Jim Jidhed. I picked up a cd from him, (FULL CIRCLE) and it was pretty good.

Were you the one that posted it? I remember Terry Brock being on it.

If that was you, repost that list if you can. I'd like to check out some others.

I printed it but can't find it now.

It's amazing that Ritchie Blackmore auditioned at least two of these singers for Deep Purple after he fired Ian Gillan.

Yeah he wanted to boost them in the American market - would have been VERY interesting had he got his way - i always thought Rainbow were better then Purple..........

No one knows if they dropped Jeremey, or Arnel or whoever....

Well... we'd have to wait and see... do we?
Like Van Halen used to say on their website... "No news is good news."
