Metal legend Ronnie James Dio dead at 67

[82Marine89]

Ronnie James Dio, whose soaring vocals, poetic lyrics and mythic tales of a never-ending struggle between good and evil broke new ground in heavy metal, died Sunday, according to a statement from his wife and manager. He was 67.

Dio revealed last summer that he was suffering from stomach cancer shortly after wrapping up a tour in Atlantic City, N.J. with the latest incarnation of Black Sabbath, under the name Heaven And Hell.

He went out on a good note... (http://new.music.yahoo.com/ronnie-james-dio/news/--62001717)

RIP, Holy Diver. One of the great metal vocalists of all time, now throwing up the horns in a better and higher place.

RIP, Dio. Sad day. Originator of the Devil Horns even if it was unintentional.
