LIZZY BORDEN Bassist: RONNIE JAMES DIO's Music 'Will Live On Forever'

May 16, 2010

LIZZY BORDEN bassist Marten Andersson has released the following message regarding the passing of legendary heavy metal singer Ronnie James Dio (DIO, HEAVEN & HELL, BLACK SABBATH, RAINBOW):

"Ronnie, I know you have been really sick for a while now so I know this is one of the horrible outcomes when you deal with a horrible decease like cancer (trust me, I know, seeing first-hand my mom getting chemo pushed into her body). Still, hearing about this hit me right in the heart.

"I seriously didn't know I would feel this strongly about your passing. The influence and strength you gave me through your music over the years is more apparent then I realized and far beyond (me trying to put it into) words for right now.

"I know in time I will have nothing but great memories of your amazing music and the person you were but right now this is a very difficult to deal with for me (and the million of metal family members you have around the world).

"You were the man, the legend!! We will all miss you but you will not be forgotten; your music will live on forever.

"Have a safe journey!"
