HEAVEN AND HELL, featuring RONNIE JAMES DIO, BLACK SABBATH guitarist Tony Iommi and bassist Geezer Butler, and drummer Vinny Appice (Black Sabbath, Dio), visited The Opie & Anthony Show on Monday (April 2). Video footage of the appearance can be found at this location.

Launch Radio Networks' Bruce Simon recently reported that Heaven And Hell shot a concert DVD at Radio City Music Hall in New York City on Friday, March 30th. By all accounts, the band's performance was great, with some long-time fans calling it the group's best show ever, but things didn't go as smoothly behind the scenes as they could have.

Lead singer Ronnie James Dio told Launch that New York City union issues reared up hours before the concert even began: "We didn't have enough time for a soundcheck because the union went, 'OK, time for a break.' 'But we've only done half a song.' 'Time for a break.' 'But we've got 15 minutes left.' 'We said, time for a break.' You know that way that goes. So, all in all, it was more difficult than it should have been - but it is a city show, and that's what you've gotta put up with."

There were plans to lengthen the setlist for Radio City, but having soundcheck cut meant the band couldn't properly rehearse. They were planning to add the new track 'Ear In The Wall', that's on the new album Black Sabbath: The Dio Years, which comes out today (Tuesday, April 3rd).

Heaven And Hell goes back out on the road beginning April 22nd in Phoenix.
