| Post subject: | Manowar Dispute With Fenstein and Wendy Dio. |
These douche bags are attempting to justify profiting from the death of Ronnie James Dio by putting out a compilation tribute album and selling it at their merchandise tents at their shows and on their online shop. At no point have they mentioned where the proceeds are going, they have merely made blanket assertions that they were friends with Dio....so it's ok....right? Fuck Manowar. These balding has beens are out to make a buck off of someone's death. How despicable. If you want you can find the article on Blabbermouth. I would provide a link but I'm too lazy and I imagine many of you have seen it already. |

Wendy Dio makes reference to what these revolting shitheads are up to here: http://www.ronniejamesdio.com/ Even though she does not directly name particular bands her reference to Blabbermouth's coverage should be enough. It's a feckin' disgrace that people would do this kind of shit. |

If you wish to make a real contribution to the Ronnie Dio Cancer Fund you can find the info here: http://www.ronniejamesdio.com/memorial.asp Plus you'll receive a cool memorial package for doing so. |

I'm afraid so. Manowar still have, for some reason unknown to me, a certain amount of fans who will eat up anything these idiots feed them. They don't care where the money goes, they just want some half naked guys in leather pants to give them some Manowar cookies. |

Why would they? They need money to buy clothes since they have only loin cloths to wear. You think they'll admit it? |

I think its amusing that their only response is that they were friends with Dio. Since they have some remote relationship, Dio wouldnt care that they were profiting from his death. These guys are a fuckin disgrace. I dont even know how they can justify this in their own minds. And shit, you don't need money to buy loin cloth. Rough and tumble dudes like Manowar should be able to just find a deer carcass on the side of the highway and borrow some of its skin. |

Don't see the big deal. Sigh recorded the Venom tribute album and didn't donate anything. Sure, Dio is dead, but I don't see what the big deal is. A million and a half Dimebag tributes were made for no reason other than he died. |

The question is that are they trying to do a tribute because he deserves it and they cared about him or are they doing it just to cash in on his death? If it's the latter then that's a very low thing to do. |

Yeah, Manowar are being assholic about this whole thing - quel surprise, after the photographer-kidnappings and whole deal with Rhapsody, anyone needing to be told that DeMaio and co are miserable sonsabitches hasn't been paying much attention. |

According to Wendy Dio, Ronnie was never friends with Demaio. What a fucking tool. This has got to be the greediest thing ever to happen in metal. What complete and utter fucking pieces of shit. |

And they should have donated any proceeds to the Brady Campaign 
I just think what I would do if I released a Dio tribute album right after his death. Not donating any proceeds to the cancer fund would be out of the question and some pretty callous justifications would have to exist not to. So, my opinion is they are not doing the right thing, and I will tell my metal friends not to buy it, which is my prerogative. |
