Don prefers a cheroot that will last the whole song thru... None of these wimpy little 3-minute jobbers that you have to pause your playing to swap out.

By the way, Rip Rokken got a shout out on the show tonight... LOL! Great interview with Rob Halford. He said he'd be willing to consider singing Ripper Owens era songs... Can you imagine? Most returning original singers will not do songs by the guys that replaced them. Hmm.... Anyway, very down to earth guy.

He could consider it all he likes but he wouldn't be able to do them any justice live without some serious vocal exercise. Imagine him attempting Jugulator, Burn in Hell or Cathedral Spies...ouch! His voice on the last tour at least just wasn't in shape. Perhaps he was smoking too many of Don Dokken's cheroots, which would explain the vocal decline in both men!

Should be ok as long as he goes filterless -- those filters contain terrible carcinogens. I think Rob would be the bomb if he came out puffing on a BackWeeds Smoke!

Mmm... Wild Rum! I think there is a Moonshine flavor as well.
