Re: Doogie's Spotlight Kid
No one that has heard Dougie (proper spelling! He is called Douglas and he only uses Doogie nowadays, because people couldn't speak it out correctly, they called him "Daggie" then...) singing live with Rainbow and Yngwie Malmsteen (he did a fantastic job on Child in Time) will call him a second league singer!

When are you going to grow up Gillian and find someone else to bug ? By now you must be in your what 40's or 50's maybe even older and still you're as petty as the average 3 year old!
I find the whole 'I have to get one over on you' thing very tedious. It would be far more pleasant to respect each others point of view rather than anylising it in major detail looking for ammunition to throw back in the following posts.

Dougie to these ears sounds like nothing like JLT or RJD. The only reason you're comparing him to them is because Blackmore FORCED him to sing some of the SIUA in a familiar way (Wolf To The Moon is indeed a dead ringer for JLT, I thought it was him when I first played the CD  ).
IMO, Stranger In Us All doesn't really do a lot of justice to the man's talents. If you really want to hear him sing in his own voice then you should get Cornerstone's Human Stain.

Christos, when I first heard SIUA I also thought it's JLT on the first track! Amazing!
I have all Cornerstone records and Human Stain is indeed a decent record (the other 2 are average at best). I agree that Dougie tried to find his own identity on this one but we need more proves (in shape of good records!). Because his Malmsteen CD was horrible and his tribute contributions mostly faceless (or simply terrible - Iron Maiden tribute anyone?). On Nostradamus he was blown away by pretty much everybody. By the way - it's the only time that he and JLT recorded together and Joe indeed ate the poor Dougie for breakfast (though he himself was upstaged by Jorn Lande on that record).
So in my book DW still belongs to all the Jeff Scott Sotto's of the world - he has a lot to do to prove that he's worthy of the ex-Rainbow singer title.
P.S. I'm actualy going to Cornerstone show in a week! 
Promise an honest report!

Is Cornerstone on tour? Nothing about a tour /show at their site. Where will you see them? Hope you enjoy the show. I saw them in Copenhagen in February, amazing show! Check out the video clip. IMHO they’re the best new band around.

Re: Doogie's Spotlight Kid
It'a not a very reliable info but the rumour is they are going to play Moscow on 26 of November. No official confirmation yet but the same happened with Tony Carey and the concert did occur!

When are you going to grow up Gillian and find someone else to bug ? By now you must be in your what 40's or 50's maybe even older and still you're as petty as the average 3 year old!
For one,you are the one that doesn't read carefully,if you go back and read the entire post yourself,you will clearly see,that while writing that very post,I went back and picked up where I left off,as I clearly mentioned doing.
I also asked you nicely not to make anything of it,concentrating on what I write,instead of concentrating on what you think of me in the first place,would be a suitable practice for you.
Anyone with a further comment,the three of which made them,it would be decent of you guys to read my entire post as well,the only one "trying to get one over" is BTN himself,I'm sure you all know that.
There was something in there that I can be questioned about,and have,but Doogie seems to have changed his stance ever so slightly on this,if I can find the information that proves this,I'll be glad to post it,plenty of atrists do this sort of thing all the time in interviews.
BTN is the one doing all of the slagging here,I'm just trying to get him to reply in a positive manner,and not rely on his usual tactics,which show that he doesn't want to get along.
"YER native brilliance,and
"When are you going to grow up GILLIAN and find someone else to bug",are perfect examples of his way of doing buisness right here in this very topic,which I can't be quoted as doing anywhere near the same here.
This is not my approach afterall,it's his.
He continues to do this,post after post,if no one wants to see it this way,fine by me,I'll gladly hand him over to the next person,and he can do it to them...any takers?
We shall see soon enough,which one of us can be bothered to reply to one another,and you can take comfort in knowing,it won't be me.
Now watch as he tries his damnedest to get me to reply to yet more negative gibberish...
I'm nearly praying he doesn't do so,but I'm not the one who can put a stop to him,I can only stop myself,by discontinuing with any further reply to him.
When he argues with me,I don't go after him,I address what he writes,not who he is,or what I think of him,and I certainly don't toss any name calling his way,as he constantly does to me.

When speaking to Doogie the other week , he did mention that they were trying to get a gig in Russia.
