“They are taking some of those dollars away, I guess. ... The new guys cannot get footing, they need every advantage they can get, you know what I mean? That’s all I’m saying.” Wait till you hear WHY they said it... Chris swears that geriatric rockers like Deep Purple‘s Ian Gillan (who is going blind!) and Don Dokken are actively blocking younger bands like Wolfgang Van Halen from ever making their mark!
Neeley and Chris tackle the controversial comments from Deep Purple singer Ian Gillan that the band has “no end in sight,” even though Gillan is 80 and going blind. They defend Don Dokken against trolls for performing while sitting, admitting he’s lost the ability to play guitar. Ultimately, Chris swears these old bands not retiring hurts the next generation. Do these legendary rockers have a responsibility to step aside for younger acts, or should they truly rock till they drop?
