Ronnie's ill

As you probably already read elsewhere, Ronnie has become ill and was forced to cancel the European tour. The tour was supposed to start already on Saturday in Glasgow, so this was pretty much the last minute cancellation. Unfortunately there are no rescheduled dates either.

"Ronnie has been hospitalized and we are waiting for further news," explains Ronnie's wife/manager, Wendy Dio. says Wendy on Ronnie's official pages. I recommend you to check out the official site for news.

On Facebook I spotted an excellent quote from Jens Johansson, Dio's keyboardist from the Lock Up The Wolves days. "What's on my mind? Ronnie Dio. But I'm not gonna pray to nobody, I'll raise my horns in hope instead." I won't be praying to anyone either, but I sure raise my horns instead! \,,/ \,,/

Will you raise your horns too and wish Ronnie a speedy recovery with them? If yes, ask someone to take a photo of you with your horns and e-mail it to me. Include your name and country with the message. I set up a very simple photo page for these pics and post them online here at dio.net!
