The fervent Ronnie James Dio fans who gathered to watch a group of the late singer’s former bandmates close out Germany’s mega-sized heavy-metal festival Wacken Open Air Saturday night got a big surprise: a theatrical performance by Dio in hologram form.
I am a huge Dio fan, but I find this a bit creepy.
I loved his first two albums. Dio was one of my favorite bands of the 80s. But, I think we kinda have to admit that the man who didn’t need a mic to fill a concert hall with his voice was… an unlovely man. But damn, could the guy sing. I’ll tip a pint to RJD tonight. Cheers, old boy. Your songs are the reason I’m deaf as a post today 😀
I’d like to see it, but yes it seems kind of creepy too.
Odd that that Rolling Stone didn’t have a link or embedded video of the actual hologram performance. I wonder if it’s not available? Off to search I guess.
