RIP DIO
Singer of Rainbow, second singer of Black Sabbath and Solo Heavy metal god , Ronnie James Dio is dead at 67 from a battle with stomach cancer. The man with one of the hugest voices in Rock left us with at least a couple of gems most notably, Holy Diver" and "Rainbow in the Dark" which added to the mysticism and aura of heavy metal music in the early 80s. What I liked about the man was that he seemed to have a good sense of humor to him whenever interviewed even to go as far as saying his Italian grandmother was responsible for the devil horns hand gesture many fans throw up at rock shows. He was pint sized but that voice was gigantic and will live on on in the rock ether forevaw and evaw, Dio, YOU ARE A HOLY DIVAW!
RIP.
