Grinnik...het bleek ook een behoorlijk bloedbad voor de startlijst: slechts twee nummers hebben het overleefd en die zijn ook nog eens meer classic metal dan classic rock.
Is er ooit eerder een GH geweest waarbij er in de finale zo weinig van de startlijst is overgebleven?

Het was lastig, héééél lastig om de nummer 1 te kiezen. Een van Maidens beste of Rainbows beste? Ronnie of Bruce? Clive of Cozy? Ritchie of Dave & Adrian? Steve of Jimmy? Dan ga ik tóch voor Ronnie.

En mijn gevoel of het nu wel of geen "classic rock" is heb ik nu overboord gekieperd, ik ga voor mijn tien favorieten. En Anneke moet er ook in, wellicht omdat mijn oren nog wat nagalmen van haar optreden van gisteravond.
