Whitesnake is one of the best Rock Bands ever! It was created by David Coverdale when he left Deep Purple and it’s been going strong ever since! Current members include: David Coverdale on Vocals, Doug Aldirch on Guitar, Reb Beach on Guitar, Uriah Duffy on Bass, Timothy Drury on Keyboards and Chris Frazier.
They will be heading back out on the road this Spring and Summer for their “Still Good to be Bad” tour. I plan on joining David for some of the European Shows so I will take some pics and give a little feedback upon my return home.
Chat more then!

Whitesnake is my favorite Rock Band! Woooo Hooooo! And it’s not ONLY cause I’m married to David Coverdale! ha ha. I liked Whitesnake before I ever met David. My first favorite Whitesnake song was “Judgement Day”. I still LOVE that song! In college Whitesnake was one of our (my friends and I) favorite party tapes. We’d listen to Whitesnake on our way to UNR football games and when we’d go out partying. I have fond memories of driving around with my best friend Deanna, in her Volkswagon Cabriolet blasting Whitesnake. I think one of the things that is so appealing to Whitesnake fans, besides David’s sexy voice, is how much fun the songs are!
Now of course my favorite songs are the ones about me! Just kidding… kind of.
I LOVE ”Give Me All Your Love Tonight” in concert. I can’t resist dancing to it. And “Still of the Night” of course!
On the new Good To Be Bad CD I love “Lay Down Your Love” and “Summer Rain” ! They are my favs. The whole CD is great, though, so if you haven’t yet purchased it I suggest you go to itunes and start downloading!
The first song David ever wrote for me is on the Coverdale/Page album. It’s called “Take A Look at Yourself” and it’s absolutely beautiful. I was pretty much stunned to have someone write a song for me. Years later, David told my mom, “All the nice songs are about your daughter. All the not so nice songs are about someone else.” I hope to keep it that way!
I could go on and on…
I love “Love is Blind” of the Into the Light CD and “The River Song” is kick ass. It’s kind of Hendrixy and it reminds me of my brother Scott, who is up in heaven now. I’m sure it’s his favorite.

People always assume I met David at a show… Or something along those lines… But here’s the truth. I met David Coverdale in November 1990. We were both getting our hair hi-lighted (he was blond then) at this little hair salon in Reno, Nevada called Look n’ Good! How funny is that? When David walked in half of my head was covered in aluminum foil packets. Perfect. Just how you want to look when you meet someone famous. Or anyone for that matter! I knew who he was, of course, and thought it was really weird because over a 2-3 month period before meeting him, his name kept coming up. I guess it was our destiny to meet.
A few days after meeting, he sent me a HUGE bouquet of roses with an invitation to go out to dinner. I was pretty much floored. When I left my job that day, I called to tell him “Thank you very much, but I can’t do dinner.” I was in the process of ending a relationship, but it wasn’t quite finalized yet so I didn’t feel it would be right. Blah… blah… blah… Honestly, I was also scared to death. Let’s just say David was somewhat persuasive and I finally agreed to meet him. I just started thinking, “You know, you just might end up being really good friends. What do you have to loose by meeting him?” I grew up with 4 older brothers so it’s not like it was hard for me to talk to or be around guys. Then, on the way to that meeting “Is this Love” came on the radio. That really freaked me out. I had to pull over and breathe! ha ha.
We took things slow from there. Both of us were traveling off and on so we spent a lot of time on the phone getting to know each other before seeing each other again. Which was nice. I don’t think either one of us really wanted t be in another relationship as we were both coming out of somewhat dysfunctional ones. However… I think the angels had other plans. Seriously. David and I didn’t have a lot of choice in the matter. We were supposed to be together. And thank goodness we eventually gave in because we have an amazing marriage and friendship now.
Being married to a rock star does have it’s perks. You get to have someone write and sings songs about you. And there is nothing like seeing your husband up on stage performing. That is amazing! I am in awe of David when I watch his shows. I love hearing David on the radio and thinking, that’s my husband. Wow. I am so proud of his accomplishments. He is an incredible person. Don’t think I don’t know I’m one lucky girl!
