Well, that would make the band Rush.
And I'll assume this is part of the 2112 piece but I'll be darned if I can remember which section.

Sun Studios?
No, I jest. Not that I know for sure, though. Elysian Fields?

YAY!!!! Numfwing got it, though given that OM fogured the band and album maybe you two should decide between yourselves who asks the next question.

That’ll be Ronnie (James) Dio, previously of Rainbow and Elf, and reputedly a pretty handy trumpet player – could it be Mrs C B Hive in disguise? (Check out the height, heels and hair…….) lol!
Unless, of course they pulled in someone else who didn’t work out first…..
Gawd, you’ve got me all confused now – but Dio’s the obvious choice…..
Damnit, I’m gonna stick to my guns and stay with Ronnie.
Hic!

Dave Walker replaced Ozzy first. If I recall correctly, Walker was dispatched because Ozzy returned. But the happy reunion didn't last and Ozzy was fired again.

Score one for the Wanderer.
Dave Walker, who sang with Savoy Brown and a pre-Stevie Nicks Fleetwood Mac, was pulled in to replace Ozzy the first time he got the chop. Walker, IIRC, lasted all of one TV appearance.
You're up, HWWtSS.

Walker isn't the only frontman to join an already successful band and not work out. Which bands briefly employed the following lead singers?
1. Jon Sloman
2. Robert Fleischman
3. Michael Rickfors
4. Stef Fontaine

Pretty sure Fleischman was in Journey before Steve Perry joined and Rickfors temporarily replaced Allan Clarke in The Hollies.
I'm going to have to think about the other two.

Sloman and Fontaine were both in Uriah Heep, well after that band's glory days.
I confess I had to look them up.

what line in the song is related to the question? "...'The massive grey walls of the Temples rise from the heart of every Federation city. I have always been awed by them, to think that every single facet of every life is regulated and directed from within! Our books, our music, our work and play are all looked after by the benevolent wisdom of the priests...' We've taken care of everything The words you hear, the songs you sing The pictures that give pleasure to your eyes It's one for all and all for one We work together, common sons Never need to wonder how or why We are the Priests of the Temples of Syrinx Our great computers fill the hallowed halls We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx All the gifts of life are held within our walls Look around at this world we've made Equality our stock in trade Come and join the Brotherhood of Man Oh, what a nice, contented world Let the banners be unfurled Hold the Red Star proudly high in hand We are the Priests of the Temples of Syrinx Our great computers fill the hallowed halls We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx All the gifts of life are held within our walls" I think the phrase hallowed halls can be translated to mean sacred place.

Originally posted by Mrs C B H.I.V.E.: If I tell you that this venerable space is dedicated to an Arcadian river-nymph who was pursued by Pan. To escape him she fled into the waters of her river where she pleaded the gods for help, and they changed her into a reed. Disappointed at her escaping from him, Pan cut the reed into pieces of gradually decreasing lengths, fastened them together with wax and thus produced the shepherd's flute, or "pipes of Pan", upon which he plays.
Which venerable space am I talking about and who sang about it?
And no Numf, there's no trumpeters playing on it i'm still confused, was the river nymph's name syrinx(sp)? I dont see the relation at all.

Probably a dumb question, but I'm having trouble thinking if anything good:
Name the band that once put three songs about Joan of Arc on an album.

Not the one I'm thinking of, but if you know of an LP where they've got a bunch of Joan of Arc songs, I'll give it to you.

Not U2. But this band came up around the same time.

I want to guess Depeche Mode, but that isn't it.

Spandau Ballet? They had sort of a medieval motif before they went all MOR romantic.
