Black Sabbath - Children Of The Sea Live in Oakland 1992

[rockpig63]

Ronnie was just right for Sabbs,it should of been a match up all the way

[AleksandarGrbic]

I was at the concert also but I was fucking @VoodooChildsReturn & @dzzzt69 sisters. They were getting thumbs up and their sisters were getting something else. Fucking thumbs up whores.

Such a GREAT performance. The last night of that tour, that could explain why this show was EXTRA electric. Then probably had some remorse & some relief,...but they ROCKED it.

Oakland has all the luck:(

[WJHHunterston]

I was in CA at this time...pissed I didn't hear about this concert, this was just after the LA riots. Amazing show!

[InStrideStable]

AWESOME-LOVE this MAN

THE BEST on earth, Now BEST in heaven-This song is about Humankind destroying this PLANET-

RIP Ronnie James Dio

[omnivorace]

It's not just the voice, but also the behavior of Dio that was terrific. I was just in front of Geezer, first rank, and I never saw a man to live on stage what he was singing. when you know the songs, this cannot be just a concert, it is a fucking ritual, and if you're not straight into, the band, the crowd, you better have to forget that kind of gigs. They can be proud of that tour, RJ was the man. I love Ozzy, really, but RJ was special, he paid tribute to every songs. R-E-S-P-E-C-T.

[omnivorace]

First time I see the pictures of that gig. Thanks for sharing. Saw that tour in Europe, and believe me, it is still the best concert I have ever seen. I will never see Black Sabbath again, this was not just a reunion to make the fans happy, THIS WAS THE BEST CONCERT OF HARD ROCK OF MY ENTIRE LIFE. The voice of Dio (RIP) was brilliant, and the band was on top. The songs were only from the Dio and Osbourne periods. And the crowd... Magic night.

[surjagain]

the energy and passion of Dio was something that will be sorely missed.

This is amazing footage for 1992! Very rare. The Dio era of Black Sabbath is the best era! Luckily I got to see Heaven and Hell in 2007 and 2009 both times from second row! I have some real good vid of the '09 show. I ended up recording about half the concert. Check it out. Type terminator2570 in the search box and my vids will show. The audio is a little rough but the vid is awesome!!!

[FuneralFungi]

Diopriest2, do you want to be a amazing person and send me all the video files for this show? :)

[DarkWolf5250]

@DEEHARDONE Well, they did a great job on The Devil You Know...

[presspell]

[zekoneman]

I am totaly born in wrong generation. But I am happy to listen this legendary legacy of Dio and to play guitar... The guy because I started playing guitar is Tony. I first heard the iron man back then I was like 8 years old and then when I was 12 I heard this legendary song, my father was listening it and I was sitting on the sofa stuned. Dio RIP :( \m/

[blancmel21]

Death couldn't silence that cannon of a voice. Then again, did you expect anything less from a Metal God? Long live Dio...

[RustInPeace95]

\m/ 

[VoodooChildsReturn]

Fuck, I remember I was screaming SO LOUD going COMPLETELY NUTS, Dio looks RIGHT AT ME at 2:39 and gives me the thumbs up. Wow, it was so long ago I almost forgot.

This was my favorite concert ever. LONG LIVE THE KING RJD!!!

[RustInPeace95]

@VoodooChildsReturn he died in may 2010 :S

[VoodooChildsReturn]

@RustInPeace95 I know.. I played a cancer benefit show in his honor. :(

[zeppelin1996]

@VoodooChildsReturn How could you forget something like that??

[VoodooChildsReturn]

@zeppelin1996 ALMOST forgot... but not quite! I was lucky enough to have met Dio about 6 times. As everyone says, GREAT GUY!!!

[P00TANARA]

@VoodooChildsReturn so now your are what? like 55?

[dzzzt69]

I was at this concert. It is my favorite concert ever. WOW. I was supposed to meet the band afterwards and it fell though. I cried. Now I am crying because Dio passed. Apparently I am a pussy.

LONG LIVE DIO!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!
