According to ticketmaster he is playing The forum in London but according to Ents he is playing The Forum and then Brixton Academy the next day!!

£25 and THE best show of your life guaranteed! When I saw Dio at Astoria it was bloody amazing...tickets on sale on Friday, i hope I have some money!

I missed out on Dio in London last time, so this must be done! We should get a really big group together.

Christ alive. The Forum is a wonderful venue, that would be amazing there. I saw Dio at the Astoria gig that's on the Holy Diver DVD, it was a magical and joyous experience indeed. I can't wait to see him again!

Fucking hell, there's a lot of rock in November. Deep Purple, Gong, Saxon, now Dio... I don't know if I can handle/afford all this!

Dio, i'd kiss his dwarfy cock.
Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.

Thank the Police coming straight from the underground...

I haven't seen Heaven and Hell yet, but I would be totally up for hearing Dio giving the classics a go, partly because I'm sure he'd do an excellent job of it, and partly because I doubt I will ever see the 'real' Sabbath live, and Ozzy is probably a total let-down these days.

dont get me wrong i'd love to hear Dio have his wicked way with the ozzy era tunes, but it would never be the same!!
im lucky enough to be able to say that i've seen that original line up live and it was fantastic!! can't wait to see Dio now!! :D
