The Love Commandos note today the sad passing of legendary Sabbath and Rainbow frontman Ronnie James Dio who finally succumbed to stomach cancer on Sunday morning. Dio who was the voice of Heaven and Hell and his own eponymous band in addition to singing with Rainbow and Black Sabbath was one of the great heavy metal vocalists and will be greatly missed by many.
Sir, we salute you!

I have seen it with my own eyes, held it in my own hands, listened to it with my own ears, sniffed it with my own nose and licked every single one with my own tongue. Yes, the Love Commandos album has finally arrived, now with added saliva.

Band news
Just realised that I hadn’t posted anything about the last couple of weeks rehearsals. We’ve actually been quite busy running through material and even starting to learn yet another cover version. This time it’s the turn of the Foo Fighters to be given more of the Love Commandos makeover. After months of suggesting “The Pretender”, Andy finally listened to it again and realised he did like it after all.
After one week playing it over and over it’s starting to take shape, although getting all the parts in the right order and the right length will be a challenge. As will not singing the lyrics of Sesame Street’s “One of these things is not like the others” as the first line of the chorus. Honestly though, it does sound like that’s what he’s singing and if Dave Grohl writes lyrics the same way that our Neil does I bet that’s what it started out as!
