Brooks 1,922 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 (edited) Wasn't Dio's cousin in the rods? EDIT - yep. The Rods are an American heavy metal band formed in 1980 by David "Rock" Feinstein (guitar, vocals), Steven Starmer (bass, vocals), and Carl Canedy (drums, vocals). After the first two albums, Starmer was replaced by Garry Bordonaro. Feinstein had first come to mainstream attention after playing in Elf with his cousin Ronnie James Dio.

RobB 6,145 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I saw them on their first two tours in L.A. Feinstein totally ripped the place up, kinda like a heavier Ted Nugent with better chops. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

princeofdarkness56 719 Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Back in the 70’s and early 80’s you had a pretty good selection of hard rock bands from western NY that had personnel that went on to bigger things. Tallas out of Buffalo. Elf and then the Rods from the Syracuse area and Black Sheep with Lou Graham out of Rochester. Pretty good chance of seeing any one of those bands at least once a month. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
