Gillan in Heaven And Hell
April 1st, 2007
As you probably have already heard, following the gig at the Radio City Music Hall on March 30th, Ronnie James Dio has announced that he is quitting Heaven and Hell tour for undisclosed reasons. Now, they have an extensive tour of US in April/May and Europe in June lined up and apparently Tony Iommi wants to fulfil those commitments no matter what. He has asked Ian Gillan if he could step in for Dio as a new vocalist for the project called Born Again that will take place of Heaven and Hell and play the same dates.
Gillan, when caught backstage after the show in Limoges, said that yes, he spoke to Tony and he has to “think it over”, but probably he’ll do it if the schedule doesn’t clash with Deep Purple and there’s no dry smoke on stage.
Let’s see what does this boil down to (provided all the lawyers and managers can come to an agreement as well). Deep Purple are on tour in UK from April 21 to May 3, then on to the continent until May 27, practically non-stop. Which rules out the Born Again US tour. But at the moment it looks like he’s available for the European dates in June.
Brace yourself, I like the smell of deja vu in the morning. It really was a meeting, the bottle took a beating. Ladies of the manor watched me climb into my car…
