He was a local guy growing up, but I never got to meet him. I did see him in a *tiny* club outside of Seattle back in 1999 or 2000, couldn't have been more than 60 people there. We traded horns a couple times, one of the best shows I've ever been to. He was absolutely on point.

When we got back to the hotel Dio's band was sitting in the bar waiting on their bus. They were the only ones in there so we went in and were able to chat with all the band members, got autographs, and everything.

I had the same experience. I sneaked around the back of a venue after one of his shows in the mid 90's. Security caught me but just as I was about to be escorted off of the premises, his tour manager came out the back door and told the security guards to leave me be. He told me that Ronnie and the rest of the band were cooling down with some beers on the tour bus and he would come out and meet me in 20 minutes. About 45 minutes later, i'm standing next to the tour bus and now there is a line of fans about a mile long behind me waiting to meet him. When he came out he was so nice. He signed my banner. He literally had more questions for me than I had for him. He wanted to know my name, where I was from what I did for a living and more. That was a great experience in my life.

He is honestly more impressive live than studio. Watching/listening to him sing is like storytime. He just captivates you.

So glad Elizabeth got you into Dio. I'd love to hear your analysis of Dio singing Sign of the Southern Cross with Black Sabbath off the Mob Rules album.

Nothing can beat the original, but the cover by Killswitch Engage is by far the best cover of all time. A great homage to Dio and this music video.

There is a video of Julia and the Charismatic voice watching Dio. I think you'll love it!!! Check it out!!! I think they did Stargazer. He is one of my favorites. I was about 12 or 13 at this time. This and The Last In Line really brought me into the whole gig. Julia...You are gold in this reaction while breaking it down. Great reaction! Respect and love!!! 🤟🍻

OMG ! DIO !!!! what a good pick ;). mmmm... take a look at "Liliac". this young sisters and brothers from LA are so great and big big fan of DIO. they did some incredible covers of DIO including this one. Sure you'll love the voice of Melody (lead singer).

Vivian Campbell 🎸 who now is in Def Leppard...His work with Dio on the first two albums is excellent. Vinnie Appice 🥁 who played with Ronnie in Black Sabbath.. Have you heard Dio's vocals in Rainbow?

I'm making myself a playlist of just Dio songs and have over 200 in it but I keep finding more from him and they're all bangers. I just recently discovered his songs from "Butterfly Ball and the Grasshopper's Feast" from 1974 and "Seeds of Change" from 1980 and They're really great especially "Love is All" and "Mask of the Great Deceiver". I got 226 songs and haven't even gotten to the live albums yet.

Would love to see your reaction on Ayreon's Song "Twisted Coil" (the live version) and i'm pretty sure that you will find the Singer awesome because Damian definitely is. Keep up the great work, love it, cheers 🙂
