Just saw Sabbath

As title suggests, just saw sabbath/heaven & hell in brisbane. Absolutely killed it. Geezer was great as usual and Dio, well he sounded pretty good for an old guy

I saw them in Sydney last Saturday. Great show. Dio is great. And pretty bada** for a hobbit.






Just saw Bob Dylan last night. All class.

Question

For you guys that have seen the Heaven and Hell shows-

Are they only playing Dio era Sabbath tunes or are they playing the older Classic Sabbath tunes as well?

Thanks

WOW, is this an up to date thread?
I saw BS with Dio way back in the early 80's (i think) when Heaven and Hell first came out. Fantastic show.
Never liked OO but love Dio so when he left i lost interest in BS.

Really need to keep up with the times i guess. didn't realise Dio was back in (and out and in again).

Well that sucks for me.

I was hoping to see a Back Sabbath show.

Anyone need a pair of tickets for the Jones Beach show on Long Island on 9/8.

My friend said that he was amazed at how good Sabbath was at their age. I wish I could go. Dio is a novelty for me, but I would definitely go.

Dude, it is a black Sabbath show. Songs like Falling off the edge of the world, neon knights and heaven & hell are as good if not better than stuff they did with Ozzy. Also Dio can seriously belt it out. IMO of course

Heaven and Hell is coming here in Nov (Oct?) which is in the middle of the biggest exams of my life so far.
So naturally, I must let this VERY rare chance pass.

I've got no problem with Dio.

Sorry but to me No Wizard, Wicked World, NIB, Wasp, War Pigs, Hand of Doom, Fairies Wear Boot, Sweet Leaf, After Forever, Supernaut, Snowblind and no Iron man is no Sabbath.
