I read the comments on this forum all the time. I am an Angel Dust insider and would like to remind everyone that not everyone will immediately like the new CD as a matter of fact many won't like it at all even over time. Bernd is gone and many fans are having a hard time excepting the "new" guitar player that took his place. Remember, Ritchie isn't "taking Bernd's place" he is instead bringing his unique songwriting & guitar playing into AD. He doesn't want to "replace" Bernd. Why copy someone else's style? I strongly urge all AD fans to go see a live performance, you will not be disappointed. Give it time as AD is still in early developement. The best is yet to come. Thanks to all of you that have voiced your opinion about the new CD.
