I remember taking Samantha Duncan to see dio back in the day 87 ish wow it was sooo awesome she sat on my hand and i remember thinking Oh my my hand is on her ass! and didn't move it the whole way there,by that time my hand was dead but i was happy :D I was soo in love with her lolz my first Metal girl i dated ;D she got me into slayer lolz miss her
Super awesome concert! Thanks for the post. I can't get enough of vintage DIO. It's too bad that Ronnie doesn't release this on DVD or better yet come out with a DVD/Cd combo of this concert. Those of use who were fans back then would definitely buy it. What do you guys think?
I still remember my 1st concert at the San Diego Sports Arena, with Dokken open for Dio, November 27,1984, and still have my jersey almost new (it's true) Long Live Rock & Roll.
This is a great version of this song. The keyboards (that I normally hate) actually make it a little more eerie and evil sounding...especially at the end. Really cool. Thanks for posting this.
Those were the good ole' days of metal. I don't know why these band today refer to themselves as "metal" because this type of music defined the 80's not the 90's or the 21st century. Whether it's called NuMetal or whathever, I think the music of today should find it's own identity and a befitting name that characterizes it. I met Vivian in 1987 (Whitesnake era) but he was very nice and signed an autograph for me on the back of a Marshall silver jubilee poster.
The Dio,s voice is a really glamour and his music is a light pleasure given away for our souls.He was,is and he will be always THE BEST!Long live R.J.DIO the METAL KING!!!
