    I was thinking the same thing...

    Vivian Campbell was a star while he was in Ronnie's band. He hasn't been a star since. He's been nothing but a hired stooge collecting a paycheck...
    Trolls take heed...LOG OUT & FUCK OFF!!!

      Or as Ronnie himself once said after Campbell was sacked and bad mouthing Dio..."Now he's just an extra in Whitesnake...".

      Has anyone here ever read some of the tripe that came out of Campbell's mouth? You'll find a fine example here, from around 2004.

        He was just a hired gun in Dio. If he got 25% of songwriter royalties, he should count himself lucky, as writing chord progressions does not automatically mean he is legally entitled to anything. The copywritten part of a song is the melody and lyrics, which in Ronnie's case meant he was entitled to the royalties. If he gave up anything so that Viv could have some of it, Viv has no fucking reason to complain. Chord progressions cannot be copyrighted.

        Fuck Vivian Campbell. If he was so vile and evil, Viv would not be the only person to say so.

        If he is such a great writer, then his songs would be on some of the Prep Leper albums and he would be making bank.

        It is quite obvious he is just a hired gun for Prep Leper as well.

        FUCK THAT WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT!

          Hey I just read that DIO wanted to slice the master tapes of "Rainbow in the Dark"
          after finalizing, but that his fellow band members talked him out of it.
          Apparently he ended up thanking them

          The part that sparked my interest was that "apparently" he wrote it after
          being dumped by Sabbath and Rainbow.... Hence "Rainbow in the Dark"
          Anyone else hear this ?? Perfect song title if true.

                I'm met Vivian (and most of Dio's other guitarists) and while he seems like a nice guy, his silence has been DEAFENING. Dio discovered him. No matter what went down when he left the band, he still OWES HIS CAREER to Ronnie. Conversely, Craig Goldy's statement said "Ronnie Dio is the only reason people know my name." Classy.

                  I'm getting angry reading this...wtf? OK, he's bitter he didn't get paid what he thinks he should have...welcome to Rock Star 101, dude. One wonders if he even signed away most of his publishing rights as a kid because he was so green. But THIS:

                  "And as with Dio, I don't think that we were that big a band and certainly not all that influential." Are you fucking DAFT, dude? No, that's the way he'd like to paint it, but the outpouring of emotion and support for RJD over the last few months and especially the last few weeks kinda blows THAT premise out of the water there, Viv.

                    As I recall, around the the time he left Whitesnake and was sniffing for a job (might have been when he joined Leppard), the guy did a boatload of interviews with anyone that would listen, more or less in this vein. Ever wonder why so many people tend dismiss Cambell? By and large, this is the reason. There is a great deal of truth in the idea that when someone speaks poorly of another, you learn more about them than the person they are describing. Naturally, this of course doesn't apply when talking about Van Halen.

                      Campbell is simply an ungrateful twat...

                      He's dropped yet another rung and is now collecting his paycheque from Thin Lizzy's latest watered down version...

                        So what, now he's playing 2nd fiddle to John Sykes? Oh, but then who DOESN'T in a band w/ John Sykes?

                        Jens Johansson's Blabbermouth statement linked in the interview Craig posted disputes Viv's version of Ronnie too...

                          Yeah he is a fuckin ass hat delux. Kinda of shame really cause Holy Diver's guitar work was just kick ass.

                            Sykes isn't in this round but it's still totally absurd, as they have like six or seven guys in the band attempting to recreate what was originally a three piece. THIN LIZZY LINEUP

                              This what's on his web site.

                              Out on tour supporting bands like Thin Lizzy and Motorhead around Britain, Vivian caught the eye of bassist Jimmy Bain, who would soon join Ronnie James Dio to record his post-Black Sabbath solo debut for Warner Bros. In searching for a dynamic, powerhouse guitarist, Jimmy recalled his memorable impression of the young unknown Vivian, and recommended him to Ronnie. Vivian was 19 when he auditioned and that line-up went into the studio to record the now classic Dio albums "Holy Diver" and "Last In Line".


                              Sounds like Jimmy Bain should get paid. lol
