    Happy Birthday Ritchie Blackmore
    Apr 14 2026

    It's Ritchie's birthday on Tuesday 14 April - the day this goes out officially. He will be 81. I think we mention that here somewhere.

    And Ginger, who told me a couple of years ago that he knew he wouldn't live past 62 (I think it was 62, if not then maybe 64, but I'm fairly sure it was 62) has now been given a couple of years to live following his cancer diagnosis.

    Meanwhile, we lost another of the good guys recently when Ross The Boss - guitarist and co-founder of Manowar - died of complications from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), aka motor neuron disease. He was 72.

    On the lighter side... um... ah... LOADS of cool stuff! Come on in, the water's fine!
