Wow…

I am honestly speechless, I mean just.. wow.

R.I.P Dio, you were a metal legend with an excellent voice and your legacy shall live on in the hearts of your fans forever.

Bye bye, Holy Diver.

I’m afraid so… It’s a shame, considering his age, I guess it kinda makes sense, although it’s very sad to see a man who had all the talent in the world has left us.

Well, he wasn’t all that young and it wasn’t murder or anything, so I guess he gave the best he could.

When Paul McCartney and Eric Clapton die, I’ll have a bottle of tequila ready.

@ Jacob: I put up some videos. He took over Ozzy’s position in Black Sabbath when he left to solo. Ronnie James Dio is also the inventor of “The Horns.” Every time you throw up the horns during a particularly awesome song, you owe one to Dio.

I knew who he was and I knew his music kicked ass just didn’t listen to him often that often is all.
I’ll be sure to give my respects with the horns the first time I go to a Music Concert.

@Jerk: He didn’t invent the horns, it was an Italian thing, he just popularised it in music terms.

Well originally it just meant bullshit, so you could probably say that he invented the horns as we know them

He invented the context. I mean, anybody could’ve made the hand gesture before that but he connected it to metal. So I’d still argue that he invented Der Hornen.

Well yeah, in that way it makes sense.

S’okay Ray. You’re still my bro.

I know Jerk, I know. =’)

BTW, isn’t it time you changed your name again?

Thank you!
I knew I’d be a dick if I brought it up again.

That’s four people who’ve brought it up now. xD I get the picture. Tell me what you think of the new name in the chat thread.

Yeah, it’s quite sad. Got to read this a day ago through Facebook when the Coheed page posted it. I was shocked.

RIP Dio \m/( ‘.’ \m/)

Who’s Dio?



Kidding, he’ll be missed.

It is a sad day indeed… I play my favorite Rainbow song “The Temple Of The King”, and remember that it was Dio that made that song, and that band, so epic.
