Thin Lizzy reforming????

MoooooOoOoOoOoOoOoOOOOO!
You hear that sound? That's the sound of the cash cow being milked dry to the bone.

The idea of this wouldn't have been too bad had it been done around 86-88, after all, there are a number of successful bands who were able to continue without their frontman, AC/DC being one to name quite a few. But a new album 25 years later? Nah, don't like it at all, sorry.

Ah I see.

There are few connections. Aldridge was in Whitesnake with Skyes and has played with Gary Moore aswell. Aldridge also stood in/replaced Downey 1997 - 2000. Hes also on these albums.

John Sykes - 20th Century
Gary Moore - Dirty Fingers - Live At The Marquee
Thin Lizzy - One Night Only (2000)

How can Thin Lizzy be reforming when Phil Lynott is dead?? Thin Lizzy is an Irish band & there are no Irish members in it. Scott Goram is the only member who had a good stint in the band during the classic era! John Sykes was only on Thurder & Lightning & lets be honest, that wasn't during their peak. I really wish they weren't using the "Thin Lizzy" name! I won't be buying the album or going to see them!

Actually I really like Thunder and Lightning though Vagabonds is still probably my favourite album. Not so sure about a new album. I've found a lot of unreleased/unoffical Lizzy and Grand Slam stuff over the past few years though which is enough for me. I was going to upload the 1975 RTE broadcast from the National Stadium Dublin (well five songs from the set anyway - a friend of mine has the whole gig on VHS) but I wasn't sure how mods would feel about it.

Theres lots of band who have changes in their line up including their singer. Look at ACDC. I like the heavier sound they had for that final tour.
