DIO DISCIPLES: Fan-Filmed Video Footage Of Las Vegas Concert - Nov. 8, 2012
Fan-filmed video footage of DIO DISCIPLES — the project featuring former DIO members Simon Wright (drums), Craig Goldy (guitar) and Scott Warren (keyboards) — performing on October 26 at the Hard Rock Café in Las Vegas, Nevada can be seen below.

The group, which pays tribute to legendary heavy metal singer Ronnie James Dio (BLACK SABBATH, RAINBOW, DIO, HEAVEN & HELL) and is fully supported by Dio's widow/manager, Wendy, currently consists of the following musicians:

* Tim "Ripper" Owens (YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, JUDAS PRIEST, ICED EARTH) - Vocals
* Oni Logan (LYNCH MOB) - Vocals
* Craig Goldy (DIO) - Guitar
* Bjorn Englen (YNGWIE MALMSTEEN) - Bass
* Scott Warren (DIO,HEAVEN & HELL) - Keyboards
* Simon Wright (DIO, AC/DC, UFO) – Drums

Commented Goldy: "After Ronnie's passing and a lengthy mourning period, Wendy Dio and the band that was left behind have decided it was time to honor and keep the memory and legacy of Ronnie James Dio alive in the most respectful way possible!

"There is something special that happens when a group of people gather together with the same heart, mind and spirit as one another... and that is what happens every night we (the DIO DISCIPLES) perform! I never know when... but I know that it will happen because it always does... some time during the concert, the audience and the band connect and become as one!

"And with the large speaker system, lights and special performances by past members of AC/DC, JUDAS PRIEST, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN and LYNCH MOB... you don't want to rely on all the crappy little cell phone recordings that look and sound like shit posted on YouTube!

"I've never lied about anything to any DIO fan and I'm not about to start now! Every time we perform there's always several very special moments that just can't be defined into words! You just have to trust me and come experience it for yourselves! And I hope you do!"

never be replaced but this is a pretty cool tribute. I'd be happy with a concert DVD/CD and maybe some some new material too. This lineup could definetly do something. Ripper sounded pretty authentic.

They all do a nice job on the classics and latter Dio songs. Still can't believe that Ronnie is gone! :( R.I.P.

Interesting to see them include that on the poster. I take it it's "officially" endorsed by Wendy ...

If there IS an "official" Dio band - it's the one with Vinny, Claude, Jimmy, and Viv (like it or not).

I'd love to see them support a major act; may prompt them to release a live cd/dvd

Cancer benefit shows where all the cash goes towards the Cancer research foundation Dio wanted is one thing, this is nothing more than a cash grab by some old washed up guys. These vultures should go write their own shit and stop using a dead guys name.
F'kin vultures !

seems kinda goofy... but I saw Lynch Mob and Dokken together a few yrs back... and Oni's energy was 100%.. Don's was a flat big hungover 0%. So, I'll take goofy.
