Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, . That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then .

Having the guitars his name is on being high quality instruments that sound great helped sell them too

I wonder how many kids picked up a Les Paul (which were still expensive at the time, in equivalent dollar values) thinking they'd sound like him? LOL Poor kids...

Oh, Ronny James Dio... Him... He popularized the first and fourth finger extension - or, as we know it today, 'throwing horns'.

We could probably include a Jim Morrison thing or two in the mix. He certainly was good at making a crowd his own, but I'm not sure if it was as crazy as Beatles Mania.

Probably could count the Mop Tops coming to America as monumental as well.

Jim Morrison? He was an over promoted lounge singer.

Dio had that leather lung sound

Jim was REALLY good at controlling the crowd.

Listen to his live stuff, especially.

"We want the world and we want it..."

He took the crowd to the brink of rioting, and with perfect timing screamed "NOW!!!"

Fucking amazing and absolutely influenced pretty much ever rock group for decades.

That said, he'd definitely be a lounge singer today. He'd be working the strip like a hooker in heels. I'd go see 'em.
