Dio replaced Ozzy in Black Sabbath from the Mob Rules album IIRC, possibly the one before it _________________TwitterCharlie Brooker: Macs are glorified Fisher-Price activity centres for adults; computers for scaredy cats too nervous to learn how proper computers work; computers for people who earnestly believe in feng shui.

  | | | | Quote: Download Festival Rename Second Stage In Honour Of Ronnie James Dio
Download are to honour the memory of Ronnie James Dio on the 30th anniversary of Donington by renaming their second stage the “Ronnie James Dio Stage”.
In a touching tribute, Download festival are to rename their Metal Hammer-sponsored second stage the “Ronnie James Dio stage” in honour of the legendary frontman who passed away yesterday.
In a statement on his Twitter, Download festival organizer Andy Copping has said: “The second stage at Download this year is to be renamed the Ronnie James Dio stage as a tribute to the great man with the incredible voice.”
In another formal tribute to a key player in the rock world, organisers have also announced that the Download Festival Main Stage will be called the MAURICE JONES STAGE, in tribute to the co-founder of the Monsters of Rock festivals at Donington Park who passed away last year. 2010 marks the 30th anniversary of rock and metal music at Donington, and therefore it is fitting that Maurice Jones’ legacy is honoured in this way.
Bands confirmed for this year’s Download festival thus far: AC/DC, Aerosmith, Rage Against The Machine, Them Crooked Vultures, Deftones, Stone Temple Pilots, Bullet For My Valentine, Stone Sour, Megadeth, Motorhead, Slash, HIM, Airbourne, Steel Panther, Billy Idol, Lamb Of God, Volbeat, Five Finger Death Punch and many, many more to still be announced. | | | | |

Im so greatful, I managed to see him when he did the Holy Diver tour a few years ago. It was quite odd seeing three generations going to see a rock/metal god and all being able to drink!!! As always he rocked!!!!  _________________Finally joined Flickr
