Tommy should remember that he came in after Styx already had 5 albums, and major hits including Lady and Suite Madam Blue. Somehow or another, it became Tommy Shaw and the Styx tribute band.

Actually, Black Sabbath had a slew of line up changes over the years. I believe that most of the singers they had were better than Ozzy. Ronnie, Ian Gillan, and Tony Martin being the cream of that crop.

Obviously you weren't a huge fan of Metallica with Dave MUSTAINE or you'd know how to spell his name.

How about Chris Cornhole & Rage against the Machine?
Or Venom kicking Cronos out of the band.

Does anyone remember Metallica when they had Dave Mustang singing.

you forgot Motley crue the new singer in 94 wasnt that good & most fans didnt like it.
I agree Rob halford was the original singer.
also lets Not forget how Brian Jhonson has been with AC/DC for 28 years & was accepted easy & still is liked very much. Also some bands do get better like Anthrax & Exodus replacing singers.
But you cant picture some one els singing for Aerosmith or Rolling stones

Pineda brought Journey back to rock. Now Journey is Journey with out more chic's song's. Saw them this summer in a soldout show in Dallas. Bought they CD and can't put it down to rest. Pineda has the voice, same range as Steve, but different feeling.
I think you should lisent closely to their latest production again. MG in Grand Prarie Tx.

Arnel Pineda can sing and not just Journey songs but Scorpions, Led Zep etc. Name it and he can kind of make you forget about ya'lls absentee Frontmen. Stop being childish. Life is Rock and Roll; Don't dwell too much in the past....move on. ..Grow up.

I agree! Finally the loss of Dennis De Young was mentioned. As far as I'm concerned, he and Steve Perry are irrreplaceable. And as far as Peter Cetera is concerned....he brought many great hits to Chicago. Van Halen is great with Roth or Hagar. We all have our different views and shouldn't be criticized for them.

Well I think Lynard Skynard sounds great with Little Brother on the mic! But I would prefer to hear Michael McDonald with Doobie Brothers. Same with Skid Row, bring back Bach. And Yes DIO! Ozzy kicks butt! But DIO kicks ASS!!

Hey Marc (with a 'C') Dago, what are you like 12 years old or something? I have seen the REAL SABBATH and I have also seen DIO when he was with BLACKMORE'S RAINBOW, and yes DIO is aGREAT singer and frontman but to say he is better than OZZY is fucking reDICKulous!!! That is the kind of mentality that breeds these new "Rock Bands", i.e. Daultry or however he or they spell it. Dude they are both great in my mind but you can never replace the original no matter how good they are. How about Justin Timberlake to replace Mick Jagger, or maybe 50 Cents to replace Hendrix, hey why not....you get the picture. I seen Thin Lizzy before Phil died, Alice in Chains before Layne died, Journey with Steve, Judas Priest on Sunset Blvd. before 600 people in the croud, Motley Crew when they were a bar band. I could go on and on. The point is NONE of these bands are better off with a lousy clone as a replacement. Next thing you know they will replace Dave Matthews with a new singer and keep the name!!!
