Ronnie James Dio, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Vinny Appice will reunite for the first time in 15 years as the band Heaven and Hell. They recorded three new songs last year and decided, songs=10,000 dollars tour=5 million.

It was originally thought that Motorhead and Down would support them. This was clearly a rumor fashioned by the machine to generate interest in the band. New openers will be Machine Head and Megadeth.

I guess Butler and Iommi are tired of propping up Ozzy for Ozzfest after Ozzfest and have moved on to greener pastures. And so the debate rages on, was it Greed $immons or Holy Diver that invented the Metal devil horns. You be the judge.
