Stars 2010 In Memory of Ronnie James Dio
Manitoba musicians celebrate the life of Ronnie James Dio by recreating the Hear 'n' Aid Video
We have had some negative comments for some strange reason so I would like to let everyone know that I think we did a great job on this tribute. We made this video just after Dio's passing. We are all Dio fans and this is our way of saying thanks and good bye to a great man. We did this video in 4 days including organizing the artists, recording audio and video, and all the editing. During the same 4 days we set up and promoted a show at the Osborne Village Zoo for true Dio fans to celebrate the life of Dio. We were able to have the video ready and premier at the Celebration of Dio show. Nobody made any money on the video or the show. Everyone involved donated there time for this. The brainchild for the project was Heather Greentree, a true Metal Maiden.
Ronnie James Dio will live on forever in his music and our memories.
"Who cries for this version?...I do"
Thanks again to everyone involved in the making of this tribute to Dio
Gotta love the Winnipeg Metal scene. I'm from Winnipeg and its a smaller city but the musicians are tight. These are some of the nicest people you could ever meet and they are all very talented and respectful musicians. Please no more negative comments anymore, they put a lot of work into this, for the love of music.
As Canadian's maybe this should be called Hearin' Eh? Good job all around. A bunch of regular folks coming together to pay tribute to one of the greatest rock singers ever, Ronnie James Dio. God on all of you for putting your heart into this!
Ronnie was such a hero to so many people and bands. He was one of the best people i ever had the chance to meet. When he passed my band also di a show with nothing but Dio covers. Thank you guys so much for doing this and showing so much respect to a true metal god. Keep the metal faith.
Metal is a huge family ... Long live to all of you my Friends ! Metal 'till we die !
Much respect 2 this. Clearly no1 is pretending they can emulate what was produced by the immense talent on the original, but this is a great effort, brought up-2-date & with a unique slant on it.
Texas Metal Head here great job to our extended family to the North great job and Thank You Canadian Rockers !! R.I.P R.J.D Long live Metal and to those of us who fly that Flag with Pride !!!!
Thank you all who made this possible.
Loved this.. Ronnie lives in our hearts. ALWAYS SUPPORT MY FELLOW MUSICIANS.
Sorry, Dio.
Very good, It's nice and very humbling to see the Metal community come together to pay tribute and homage to undoubtedly one of the grandfathers of metal. Keep rocking on...God Bless!
Why would anyone hate this? It is a group of musicians giving a tribute to a rock God. They are not standing there saying we are better than Ronnie, they are saying thanks to Ronnie for everything he did. Well done guys and RIP Ronnie.
Excelent boys!!! DIO IS LIVE IN OUR HEARTS!!!
The "oldman" like you call him was a star in the 80's in Germany with his band Mindstorm.
Love the passion and heart that went into this. Great job, Manitoba!
Its all about the passion he gave us in his music. His voice sang to us the riches and depth of his soul. A wonderful man, humanitarian. A small man with an enormous voice that sang of rainbows and magic yet he was pure metal. Thank you all for honoring him. DIO three small letters chanted for the greatest voice of all time.
RONNIE WOULD HAVED LOVED IT.
42% dislikes. That is sad. This is tribute to Ronnie James DIO. He would have appreciated it. They are trying to show love and respect for Ronnie. They should be commended not bashed. YOU GUYS ROCK ON! Keep DIO's music alive. Enjoy Life! Keep Jammin!
This tribute was cool. If the quality is not the same as the original, was because they had no time, they are good musicians. Musicians of metal that must be respected, to be more honest style of the world. The effort is made to mount a metal band and keep it on active duty is not easy. Congratulations to all who participated. We send a big hug metal here in Brazil for all of you.
