February 5, 2010, 14 years ago
Greece's Rockpages has issued a new interview with drummer Bobby Rondinelli (OVER THE RAINBOW, ex-BLUE OYSTER CULT, ex-BLACK SABBATH). The following is an excerpt:
Q: How did you decide on which songs you will play? Do you change the set list?
Ai: We always change it a little bit… but, we got to have all the eras of RAINBOW… you know the DIO stuff, stuff that Joe sings, the Bonnet songs… even some with Doogie."
Q: Was there any offer that was made by any Rainbow member of the past that was declined?
A: "Nobody said “no”. The people we asked said “yes”. Joe called me, I and Joe called Jurgen, Tony, Greg… as I said, Tony, unfortunately, got sick a week before the Sweden Rock Festival. Still, he wanted to tour with us in the USA and we immediately said, 'What? Are you nuts? You are still sick!' He said:, 'I am fine, I am fine', but we wanted him to get better. We were doing the tour and he was still in the hospital. So, we were right. He was forced to quit due to the whole medicine fatigue. But, we are still friends and anything’s possible in the future."
