Best wishes and horns up Dio!

How long will it take Pat Robertson to say he brought this on himself?

If Obamacare passes, he may be the “Last in Line”.

He probably already did in the 1980s on an episode of the 700 Club. Dio does TONS for charity. Good man.
To: My Favorite Headache
Damn. He’s one of the most amazing singers there is.

Wow, the guy from the Knack yesterday with brain cancer & now this guy.
Yet Keith Richards lives on.

Seems like some pretty sound thinking there.

Good singer. I just interviewed his bass player, Rudy Sarzo, who is a fervent anti-communist/anti-Castro, who said, "my fervent wish is that I can stand on Castro's grave and sing 'Last in Line.'"
As for Dio, I find his use of the word "blessed" a little odd.

Dr. Kapoor why does that sound familiar?
Sounds like Ronnie and his wife are coping well and have made use of all those offering support as he fights this medical battle.
Hope he beats it and continues to do well.

Dio, Rob Halford, and Bruce Dickinson are on the Mt. Rushmore of opera-inspired metal singers. They are true artists.

I'll appeal to Jesus's definition of what "good" is.
"Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone." - Mark 10:18
Good works doesn't pay for past sins. We don't have the resources to repay our sin debt to God. There is an answer, though...

Mind if we throw Geoff Tate up there?
To: My Favorite Headache

Who woulda thunk this guy would wind up as a metal god?

don’t forget Geoff Tate in his prime...

We said the same thing 30 seconds apart ;)
To: dfwgator
LOL Dio looks like he was on the 50s Doo-Wop circuit in that photo!
To: My Favorite Headache
I don’t think Queensryche had the impact of the other three bands. Tate is obviously a great performer, but I wouldn’t put him up with the three I mentioned in terms of overall impact on metal.

Ian Gillian (Deep Purple) should be on that list, too. Think “Child in Time” from the live album “Made in Japan”.
