Zisis Petkanas of Greece's zine Rock Overdose conducted an interview with legendary singer Joe Lynn Turner.

When asked about a reunion for Rainbow, he said:

“Well, I’m gonna be honest with you, right now. Yes! Possibly. It’s very possible. Last year, I wouldn’t say it. But this year I say it. It’s possible. It’s a very big possibility that something might, just might, happen. I heard talk a bit and all I can say is that I’m not supposed to talk about it, but I’m talking to you now, and all I want you to say is yes. It’s a very big possibility that we may have a reunion. It will be phenomenal.”

And when told that we hope to see him live with Rainbow, he replied:
“Yeah, man! Keep your fingers crossed.”

If we can get an album similar to Straight Between The Eyes or Bent Out of Shape, then I say go for it!!

I would love to see Ritchie Rock again!

Would be amazing.....

Everyone tho makes a comment like this every year or so.

Last year or the year before Coverdale and Hughes made comments surrounding the fact that they are good to go for a Mark III reunion.

I second Jason on this one. I'll believe it when I see it. However, I did see Joe Lynn Turner's Over The Rainbow about five years ago, and they were spectacular. Ritchie's son J.R. handled the guitar duties, and I think he would have made his dad proud.


Stay metal. Never rust.

Ritchie is somehow on board with this? I don't believe it.

I'm so disappointed to have missed that tour. I was leaving the Cape May area the day Over The Rainbow was playing the Ocean City, NJ Pier....

If Ritchie is not on board, they won't call it Rainbow I hope...

I should NOT have missed that one!!!!!

 

[SF Metal Man]

I won't believe it until I see it. Too many false starts on Ritchie reentering the rock arena. I'll be pleasantly shocked if this actually happens.

 

[modernwizardry]

Awesome.

 

[Diabolik]

maybe Skittles could sponsor the tour

Can't see it. If Richie turned down offers to do it with Dio then I can't see this happening. But anything is possible I guess. Just think this was one of those interviews like many where Turner was asked and the answer was....
I'll believe it out of Richie's mouth.
