He said he saw his father (a mason) making the gesture and copied him. Now everytime i go to a metal show i have to put up with these dimwitted hate filled teenagers paying their homage to bohemophet. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 915395Your arrogance is going to bite you on the ass! Dio had depth to his art, and he was one of the few that never sold out. He understood glory and was a masterful lyricist. Couple that with his golden chops and you've got the King of Rock&Roll. |

It must suck to 1)Die twice in the same day 2)Have to be his wife and say oh he's not dead. wait, he just died. Sounds like a bad monty python sketch to me! 3)Hear rumors your dead, and then die. This is just all kinds of fucked up. What can we really expect though. Of course there has to be some "confusion". Just wait til the HES NOT DEAD stories start going around like Elvis. Theres good enough reason for it to happen with the bs story flying around earlier. and just for the record, I'm not a dio fan. But my heart goes out to anyone that hurts from this. I still miss Kurt :(, I know how yall feel. |

He said he saw his father (a mason) making the gesture and copied him. Quoting: Magic(K) 885569Now everytime i go to a metal show i have to put up with these dimwitted hate filled teenagers paying their homage to bohemophet. My friend always said he saw an interview about that and he said that it was DIO's grandmother making the demon sign like a warding against the Devil but anyway I won't argue with you, I just wanted to say that I remember one day when I was 17 and in Highschool during the 80's and 3 of us we're walking down the street and my friend turns to us out of the blue and say's "Did you hear that DIO died?" I was stunned. The other guy who with us, was a huge DIO fan. DIO was his favorite singer, and he just went cold and looked like he was going to cry. My buddy played the moment out for a few minutes until he just burst out laughing. I came around and grasped the humor but the other guy was really pissed. I dug out my DIO tapes and Rainbow tapes but I don't even have a cassette player anymore. I remember being wasted and hearing Black Sabbath Heaven and Hell on CD for the first time on some guys Kick-ass stereo, our Jaws we're hanging open in AWE My friends went to see DIO in Concert in T.O. but I never got the chance to see him perform live also in case you don't know, If you turn the DIO logo upside down you can read the word DEVIL in the caligraphy but then again GOD spelled backwards is DOG so you can read into that whatever you want. I'm gonna play some more DIO songs RIP DIO |
