My advice to you (for what it's worth) is try not to take it personally. There are those on this board who still haven't gotten over the fact that Blackmore hasn't been a member of DP for over a decade. In their anger over this, they'll take any opportunity presented to "lash out" at those they consider responsible...namely Gillan and Steve Morse. So you will see posts here stating that Gillan is a bad singer, and that Morse is a bad guitarist. Now, of course, Steve Morse is not RB...I don't expect him to be. But I think that he is a fine guitarist, and I'm very happy that DP's got him. Also, IG will never have the "voice" he had in his 20's, but I don't expect him to! His current singing abilities entertain me just fine. So my advice is to ignore the nay-sayers...and continue posting. nondisclosed_email@example.com (Purple Avenger)Sun, 10 Apr 2005 12:23:38 +0000 Re: On this dayhttps://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p48200,from=rss#post48200https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p48200,from=rss#post48200quote:TedTheMechanic wrote: If you all hate DP and Gillan so much,please quit and leave this forum to the fans.
