RIDE FOR DIME Organizers On 'Hard Time Radio'; Audio Available

March 21, 2008

David Manley and Rob Eichelberger of Ride For Dime, Inc. were the featured guests on last night's (Thursday, March 20) edition of "Hard Time Radio" on KNON 89.3 FM, hosted by Thrashin' Alan.

Listen to the segment at this location.

As previously reported, legendary heavy metal vocalist Ronnie James Dio (DIO, HEAVEN AND HELL, BLACK SABBATH, RAINBOW) will ***NOT*** perform at the fourth annual Ride For Dime charity concert which benefits Little Kids Rock. Eichelberger told BLABBERMOUTH.NET in a statement. "We put our faith in a person that represented himself as 'Doug Goldstein', management for RJD. I actually paid a deposit to the gentleman to secure the date and he went so far as to give me his federal tax ID and have a signed contract from him of which I will post the signature page with all the info. Again we are very sorry to have misled anyone it was not done intentionally. I hope the RJD management will forgive any embarrassment our site may have caused them. We will pursue this matter."
