One of the greatest metal artists of our time, still going strong no less. My thoughts are with him!

:sad: Poor old Dio. Hope he gets better soon, but I think this type of news will be happening more and more often as Metal artists get older and older.

Why does it always have to be the persons who matter? Why not Avril Lavigne, or those fags from Nickelback?

I hope he pulls through.

At least it's in its early stages. Hopefully they'll be able to take care of it before it gets worse.

Quite the ignorant post. You may not like their music, but surely there is more to life. Those people have family and friends to.

If we're going to wish cancer on somebody I'm sure you can do better.

Been listening to Sabbath/Heaven&Hell and Dio all day. It's crazy to think he's close to 70.

I really hope he gets through this.. my thoughts are with you Ronnie! Hope you get better and head out on tour again! :)

Shit man. Pretty sad. The guy is a fantastic vocalist and a true legend. Hope he recovers soon. Will listen to Magica and Killing The Dragon after a long while. Blessed Be.

You make a good point.

Lets hope their families get cancer too.
