If your into Ronnie James Dio's stuff, specifically Rainbow, Black Sabbath(and Heaven and Hell) and his solo material, there's something about it that is really fun to listen to when you've got a good buzz on.
I don't know what it is, as far as I know none of it is about drinking. But something about it is just so fitting after tossing back a few. It is most likely just me but maybe someone else has noticed this as well.

It's because he was a great storyteller. Like the bards of old. Same as Iron Maiden. Metal Bards all.

True he did have a way with words. Excellent tunes.
I agree Maiden are the same way. They also do the trick with booze.

MOB RULES!
Honestly I still get a smile every time, EVERY TIME I hear Dio say "YOU'RE ALL FOOLS". That's good shit.

Saw him live, back in the day, on acid, and it freaked me out how little the dude was. Then he started casting spells on the crowd...
