I'm typically pretty ho hum about celebrity deaths, but damn. This one hurts, DIO was one of my all time favorite Heavy Metal vocalists. So many teenage memories. Long hair, Rockin out, partying, slutty girls, sex. Just a fuggin bummer.
RIP DIO, for good or bad. Your music touched my life.

That really sucks to hear... I didn't like all his music, some of it did just sorta suck... mainly because I think it was over-played. But, he had a great metal voice and you can't deny that he had solid credentials.
RIP - DIO

No offense but I hope no one ever asks you to write eulogy. "Ronnie James Dio was great but his music sucked because it was overexposed". JFC. |

First Frazetta, now Dio. Sad week for sword and sorcery media.

No offense to Dio, but Frank Sinatra actually invented the devil horns gesture in an attempt to simultaneously finger bang two 14 year-olds without having to set down his drink.

Was one of the all time greats....
Now we can rest assure that the same 2-3 songs of his will be blasted into our ears even more.. Like I said, great musican, but mondern day rocks stations all across the nation are ****ing putrid gay at best.... Refuse to listen to anything other than Sirius or XM... Even now they are getting pretty lame. |

2002's "Killing the Dragon" is one of my all-time favorite Dio records. Doug Aldrich is the best guitarist he's ever had (including Blackmore and Viv Campbell, who is nothing more than a Gary Moore clone). And the Heaven & Hell record was classic. I'll truly miss him and music. |
