His voice is distinctive, no doubt. He was a very good entertainer. I loved his shows. I have been to probably eight or nine of them. Like I said, he has simply abused his body to the point where he is hardly a living human being! All his mumbling, shuffling and confusion are NOT a joke.
As for Dio...a gnome?!?!? HAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!!! That is TOO funny! He certainly is "ol iron lung", that's for sure! I do not think a cage could hold him! HA!!!!!!!! [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by _strat_ from Monday, December 08, 2008 7:44:18 AM)

Mhm. Dio is the little man with the huge voice. He looks really cool too. Kinda like a little gnome that I would keep locked in a cage in my house to do my bidding...
As for Ozzy, what I was refering to is that his voice has character. IDK what an entertainer he is, because I never seen him live. But Iron Man doesnt sound the same without Ozzy.

Dio is great. A real vocal talent. Ozzy was good when he was at his best but he is no Dio. He is no Halford, either. Still, as far as being an "entertainer", you have a point. THAT he is! Of course, so is David Lee Roth. I never thought much of him vocally BUT he can work a crowd. Remarkable entertainer.

Well, IDK, I was never much of a singer, but in Ozzies case I think that there never was much talent behind it. Just character.
As for R.J. Dio, that is another thing. One of my favourite singers of all time, and Id dare say that I prefer him over Halford sometimes. Glad to hear he can still pull it off.
