Well I can link Bruce Kulick to a few of those but it ain't him...I'm guessing it's a producer or engineer?

That's funny, because I omitted a certain band so you wouldn't think of Bruce. He's not the man I'm thinking of.

Interesting. If you had added Kiss, would like question be driving me crazy or not? (I think I know who it is).

I never had a doubt you wouldn't.

Well i am going to suggest Ron Nevison. I'm not about some of the bands you listed but I know he's worked with Ozzy,Heart, Damn Yankees

I think I might be getting too demanding. I'll have to reign myself in a bit.

Who once said he wasn't the new vocalist in Iron maiden only to be announced as the new vocalist of Iron maiden a few weeks later.

Out of the five singers there have been, I guess only two would make an announcement like that.........................Blaze Bayley ??

Correct. Do you know where he said it?

Kerrang Magazine ??

Kerrang Magazine ??

He was sat on 'Krushers Kouch' during an epsiode of Raw Power and Krusher asked him if he was to which he replied something along the lines of 'I can catergorically deny I am or will ever be the new lead singer for Iron Maiden'....

I mentioned 5 Iron Maiden singers, don't suppose you can name the " Forgotten Two " ??

I did wonder about that and I have no clue. I always though Paul Dianno was the first, replace by Bruce, replaced by Blaze, replaced by Bruce...

O.k that is a bit tough, they were Paul Day and Brian Wilcock ( think that's how you spell it !!) They were in the band very early on '75-77ish. Never saw Paul sing with them but caught Brian once, wasn't that good but he was a KISS fan so wasn't all bad !!

I'll come up with an easier one.
