HEAVEN AND HELL Presented With Gold Plaques For 'Live At Radio City Music Hall' DVD

October 7, 2007

HEAVEN AND HELL — the band featuring BLACK SABBATH guitarist Tony Iommi and bassist Geezer Butler, singer Ronnie James Dio, and drummer Vinny Appice (BLACK SABBATH, DIO) — played the final show of its U.S. tour with tour with ALICE COOPER and QUEENSRŸCHE Saturday night (October 6) at the Verizon Wireless in Irvine, California. Before the encore, Indie 103.1's Full Metal Jackie presented the band with gold plaques on stage to honor U.S. sales in excess of 25,000 copies of the group's "Live at Radio City Music Hall" DVD. Vocalist Ronnie James Dio thanked the fans for their support, then dedicated the encore song ("Neon Knights") to veteran KNAC DJ Tawn Mastrey, who died this past week of liver failure brought on by hepatitis C.
