Left some guitar picks in the parking lot where Ronnie James Dio bestowed a life lasting moment in time for me. On August 29th 2009, we got to open up for Heaven and Hell at House Of Blues in Atlantic City NJ. Coheed and Cambria had dropped off the tour and we just so happened to be conveniently rolling through Atlantic City NJ on our way back from our own tour, and were asked to fill the spot. We later found out that that was his last live performance. I look back on how that opportunity arose, and it seems more like fate rather than luck.
Not only was it a dream come true to share a stage with Ronnie, and to see him live...but He also was sweet enough to go above and beyond with his hospitality. He gave us a tremendous amount of his personal time.
As we were walking out to the bus parking to start saying our goodbyes, Ronnie turned to me and asked where our vehicle was. I pointed out our trusty RV on the side of the lot. He asked if we wouldn’t mind sticking around for a bit, because he needed to sign some things for the waiting fans, but he wanted to come over and say a proper goodbye after. So we sat in our RV and watched him sign every scrap of paper, and take every picture. Afterward, he walked back to our RV and hopped aboard! I expressed how much I appreciated that even after giving all of his time to his fans that he still made time to come over and say goodbye to us. We would’ve understood if he was tired and just wanted to escape to his bus. Ronnie then wagged a finger in my face; and proceeded to pass me a torch that would also become a huge part of my personal mission. He said, “Lzzy, It’s just a moment in time; you may never remember all of these people you meet; but They will remember YOU for the rest of their lives. So you gotta make it good for each and every one of them! Ok?” After RJD passed away, I realized that he wasn’t just giving me advice for how I treat my own fans. But he literally gave me that moment in time. Something I’ll never forget and that I can carry for the rest of my life. Go teach the Angels how to sing Ronnie! We’ll see you again for the great gig on the other side!
