Man on the Silver Mountain

Anyone who knows Ronnie Dio, knows he was the boss.

Unparalleled, unrivaled… yet as gracious as they come, and a true gentleman.

Dio takes it back to when rock was pure.

With his passing, he takes the decades with him. The end of an era if you will.

The horns he is famous for that…..became the universal symbol for metal fans are not devil horns, they are a very common Italian gesture known as Mano Cornuto or Corno. It wards off the evil eye.

RIP Ronnie James Dio

    disregard my last post and I apologize… she has updated, see below

    Today my heart is broken, Ronnie passed away at 7:45am 16th May. Many, many friends and family were able to say their private good-byes before he peacefully passed away. Ronnie knew how much he was loved by all. We so appreciate the love and support that you have all given us. Please give us a few days of privacy to deal with this terrible loss. Please know he loved you all and his music will live on forever.

    - Wendy Dio
