RIOT: Vocalist MIKE DIMEO To Continue With The Band After All

May 4, 2005

Despite having recently issued a statement that he was quitting RIOT to devote himself full-time to THE LIZARDS (featuring drummer Bobby Rondinelli of BLUE ÖYSTER CULT/BLACK SABBATH/RAINBOW fame),vocalist Mike DiMeo and RIOT have now apparently had a change of heart and are insisting that the band's lineup will remain intact.

Due to his commitments with THE LIZARDS, DiMeo will be unable to join RIOT for their upcoming gigs in Texas and Italy, where he will once again be replaced by Mike Terelli (MESSIAH'S KISS, HOLY MOTHER, BURNING STARR).

Upcoming RIOT shows:

May 27 - Houston, TX @ Forget about it
May 28 - San Antonio, TX @ Tiffany Billiards
Jun. 04 - Milan, ITA @ Iron Fest 2005
