Completely made up...

around 20 years ago one of my favourite things to do whilst drunk was make up Ronnie James Dio lyrics on the spot.

There isn't much to it... just include the words 'dragon', 'kings', 'sky', 'tower' and of course... 'rainbows'.

Patrick Crowther | 27 June 2009 - 9:10pm

Good point

I like him more in interviews than in music. He´s a very funny and sharp guy who found his - then - own nerd field in heavy metal.

And what else is he supposed to sing about? Flower arranging? Still like his voice, though.

Bob Dylan Sued Over Dignity For Plagiarism

Bob Dylan Sued Over Dignity

Camden NJ May 18, 2009 -Few artists can lay claim to the controversy that has surrounded the career of songwriter James Damiano. Twenty-two years ago James Damiano began an odyssey that led him into a legal maelstrom with Bob Dylan that, to this day, fascinates the greatest of intellectual minds.

As the curtain rises on the stage of deceit we learn that CBS used songs and
lyrics for international recording artist, Bob Dylan. Bob Dylan's name is credited to the songs. One of those songs is nominated for a Grammy as best rock song of the year. Ironically the title of that song is Dignity.

Since auditioning for the legendary CBS Record producer John Hammond, Sr., who influenced the careers of music industry icons Billy Holiday, Bob Dylan, Pete Seger, Bruce Springsteen and Stevie Ray Vaughan, James has engaged in a multimillion dollar copyright infringement law suit with Bob Dylan.

It is judicially uncontested by Bob Dylan and or Bob Dylan's law firms Manatt, Phelps & Phillips , Parcher Hayes & Snyder, Gibson Dunn & Crutcher, Heck Brown and Sherry and Sony House Counsel that Bob Dylan and people in Bob Dylan's entourage have solicited James Damiano's songs and music for over ten years and eleven months, as per the law suit.

District Judge Jerome B. Simandle states in his decision "This court will accept as true Plaintiff's allegations that Sony represented to him that he would be credited and compensated for his work if Dylan used it. Judge Simandle also stated in his decision "Plaintiff has demonstrated a genuine issue of material fact as to whether defendants had access to his work.

pssst - Cookieboy.

there's a big clue that you might have missed that's part of the picture.

(clue for you - what's it called ? not one of Daulle's finest works, imho)

and most of us on teh site in the UK are watching Broooooce live from Glastonbury.

0
el hombre malo | 27 June 2009 - 11:05pm

Is the clue...

If you hold the pointer thing over the picture it actually tells you who it is? I realised that after I posted it. I'm new to this posting picture things.

It's Sunday morning here and I'm watching the news, coming up "Jackson Inquiry" and after that "The danger of prescription drugs." Apart from weather and sport everything is Jacko related. They just mentioned "Second autopsy" to come.
