That totally sucks.

Man i'm bummed.

Was flipping channels last night and VH1 was doing some "best of" rock song garbage and I paused and watched Dio and Sabbath doing Heaven and Hell and was thinking "man, Dio is looking old..."

Stomach cancer from what I just read.  How horrible.

I met him in a Mexican restaurant in Columbia Mo. back in 1990. I bought him a beer and we chatted at the bar about the local bar scene for an hour or so. He signed my salad plate and I stuffed it under my coat and walked out.

Several years later my wife found the plate in an old box and put it in the dish washer  :cry

There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

No one ever told me life was kind, I guess I never heard it, never heard it all!!!!
Living in a world of make believe, I can hide behind what's real!!!!
But wearing your emotions on your sleeve, and they all know what you feel!!!!

I finally had a chance to see Dio in Heaven and Hell in 2008 during the summer tour of Heaven and Hell/Judas Priest.  Dio was great.  What I liked about him the most was he was humble and treated his fans with respect.  A well spoken educated gentlemen from what I read.  God Bless you Dio and be in peace.

I beg to differ and unfortunately Wiki agrees with me. Ian Gillan was later again with the Born Again album.
