Ronnie James Dio dies

Recommended Posts

Dio did a great cameo a couple years ago in the Tenacious D movie "Pick of Destiny"...you can see it, in the opening few minutes of the movie (which are hilarious before Dio's appearance, which takes place two minutes into the video), here (scroll down to the first video on the page):

btw, Meatloaf, uncredited in the movie, plays the young Jack Black's dad...brilliant stuff all around.

The intro was the best part of the movie, IMO, especially Dio. :rotfl:

 

[color:blue]I hear you brave young Jaybles,

You are hungry for the rock.

But to learn the ancient method,

Sacred doors you must unlock.

Escape your father's clutches,

And this oppressive neighborhood.

On a journey you must go,

To find the land of Hollywood!

In The City of Fallen Angels,

Where the ocean meets the sand,

You will form a strong alliance,

And the world's most awesome band.

To find your fame and fortune,

Through the valley you must walk.

You will face your inner demons.

Now go my son and rock![/color]

Agreed. Basically, whenever they were singing the story along, it really worked. The dream-sequence bar performance and duel with the devil were pretty awesome as well. They should have just made the whole thing a full-fledged rock opera.
