Remembering Dio: A Teenage Concert Diary & Musical Tribute

[steveb391]

Awesome. I saw Dio in Long Beach in So. Cal must have been around 1987, definately a great show with some kind of spidery dragon come out of the overhead of the stage. Great concert.

Only bummer was my buddy who went with me got into a fist fight with some other metal head and got thrown out by the police, oh well, I stayed and finished the concert, hell yeah.

Thank you Ali for remembering Ronnie with this wonderful acoustic rendition, it made me weep. You are right he was indeed a 'cute' 'fire breathing dragon'. Of all of the metal men he was a true gentleman, and I like many others will miss him deeply. Thank you again for the magnificent tribute, ROCK ON!

[DigitalDesignHouse]

Thank you very much....that was fun . Back when concerts were an event . Great tribute too ... you play well and great voice . RIP \m/

[AliHandal]

@DigitalDesignHouse Thanks so much! I had so much fun doing this, I'm considering doing a little video series based on my teenage concert diary. I saw SOOO many shows, and have some pretty funny diary entries. ;)
