PEARL JAM Pays Tribute To RONNIE JAMES DIO

May 18, 2010

A BLABBERMOUTH.NET visitor has submitted the following report:

"Just got home from the PEARL JAM show in Boston, Massachusetts.

"I arrived at the [TD] Garden about 45 minutes before the opening act, BAND OF HORSES, hit the stage. I was pleasantly surprised to hear music from the entire career of Ronnie James Dio (RAINBOW, DIO, BLACK SABBATH) loudly playing over the house speakers the entire time! And in an even cooler moment, during the closing of the 'Alive', [PEARL JAM] finished up the song by belting out the unmistakable riffs from BLACK SABBATH's track 'Heaven And Hell'!

"Cheers to PEARL JAM.

"Long live rock n' roll.

"Dio will be sorely missed."

Fan-filmed video footage of the "Alive" performance from last night's (Monday, May 17) PEARL JAM concert can be viewed below.
