Surely on the Highway To Hell one might not be surprised to meet a Bat Out Of Hell?

NME.
Variety.

Some places online very generously refer to him as co-lead vocalist of QOTSA. He was never really more than a guest star. Still a big name. Sad news.

That's a sad one for me. My band supported the Screaming Trees in 1992. Didn't get to talk to him, but the Connor brothers were really nice.

In fairness, he was working with the band pretty full time around the time they released their biggest album and he co-wrote No One Knows so it is understandable. I used to have all their albums at one point.

I went to see them a few years ago.  Arrogant little shits came on stage over an hour late, smirking, with no excuse or apology.

Seems they think they have to copy everything from the 1970s.
