The late Ronnie James Dio will make his US debut in hologram form at the Pollstar Awards. Dio’s hologram was used at the German heavy-metal festival Wacken Open Air last year. Jeff Pezzuti, CEO of the hologram’s creator Eyellusion, said the Dio facsimile would be utilized as part of “an over-the-top, mind-blowing experience. We are going to have both live singers with [Tim “Ripper”] Owens and Oni Logan as part of the show, as well as Ronnie appearing throughout the show at different parts, some duets. It’s going to be mind blowing from the fans’ perspective. We are going to bring album covers to life. We are going to bring things that are known to Ronnie to life onstage.” The performance is the precursor to a promised Dio Disciples tour in 2017 that will feature the Dio hologram, Blabbermouth reports. The Pollstar Awards will take place February 2nd at The Novo in Los Angeles. Copyright(c) 2017 RTTNews.com. All Rights ReservedLess «
