Paul Rodgers Profile
Paul Rodgers has signed on to perform at London's O2 Arena as part of a tribute to late Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun. "Ahmet had many gifts," Rodgers said in a statement. "His soulful freedom to love and lift others was just one. Now even in his passing he is still bringing people together and inspiring us. I am deeply honored to be a part of his musical legacy and pay tribute to his memory." As previously reported, the upcoming concert will also feature a reunion performance from Led Zeppelin,as well as Bill Wyman's Rhythm Kings and special guests Pete Townsend, Paolo Nutini and Foreigner. Originally scheduled to take place this month, the tribute show was pushed back to Dec. 10 after Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page--Rodgers' bandmate in The Firm--fractured his finger.

Nice blog! I wanted to do one like this but I see you have it all covered. I saw Kevin DuBrow in 1983. He was a good singer. I would think that he and Randy are up there jamming a bit!
