Knew the man personally a great guy R.I.P Ronnie :sadwave:

Ronnie James Dio, whose soaring vocals, poetic lyrics and mythic tales of a never-ending struggle between good and evil broke new ground in heavy metal, died Sunday, according to a statement from his wife and manager. He was 67.
Dio revealed last summer that he was suffering from stomach cancer shortly after wrapping up a tour in Atlantic City, N.J. with the latest incarnation of Black Sabbath, under the name Heaven And Hell.

I'm sure its sacriligious to say this, but I liked his vocals more than Ozzie.
Seemed like a good guy. Never got a chance to see him.
bless him and his family.

How freakin cool is that !!
I never heard anyone have a bad thing to say about him. I'm so bummed I never saw him. I really need to see some of these guys soon.
I really want to go see the scorions and then Rush. You never know when it will be your last chance.
