DORO PESCH Performs 'Egypt' Cover As Tribute To RONNIE JAMES DIO (Video)

October 9, 2010

Fan-filmed video footage of German metal queen Doro Pesch performing a cover of the DIO classic "Egypt (The Chains Are On)" as a tribute to Ronnie James Dio on October 3, 2010 at the Crazy Donkey in Farmingdale, New York can be viewed below.

In a May 2010 statement, Doro Pesch had the following to say about Ronnie James Dio's death:

"I'm so sad and heartbroken it's still hard to even believe what has happened. It feels like losing one of my best friends.

"Ronnie was such an incredible inspiration to me both as a musician and as a person. His tremendous talent, the depth of his voice, his sincere personality… It's difficult to put into words the wonderful soul that he was to his friends and fans around the world. I've never seen a musician be as good to their fans the way Ronnie was.

"I'm so grateful that we were able to support DIO many times throughout the years.

"Ronnie meant the world to me. I love him so much and miss him so deeply.

"Rest in peace, Ronnie. Your spirit will live on forever. We love you."
