That's funny, Stark, because Dio celebrates his birthday on July *10th* every year. Always has. And every listing everywhere has his birthday as July 10th. |

Don't you love mystery? According to UBL: "Born Ronald James Padovana in Portsmouth, NH, on July 10, 1949". That makes him 53, but is [i]vox populi[/i] that he's >60, so...who cares? He sings like the best in the business, that's what it counts.

Yes, sorry, you're perfectly right, July 10, 1942 is his correct date of birth (mixed the date up with a friend of mine's).
As I said I've seen a copy of his passport, so 1942 is definitely the year in question! |

I believe Dio is on or about 61 years old based
on my memory of his birthdate as listed by Hard Radio News. |

The man is God.
He's a bit more "stable" than Ozzy, dontcha think???????
Dio deserves a lot more credit than he's got. That why I'm going to see him and cheer like a nut here in NJ tonight! |

I heard that he made his first record in 1958.
Anyway, who cares how old the guy is. he still has one of the best voices in metal! |

Dio probably has done what most "rockers" don't do-take care of themselves. I don't think anyone here really cares how old he is- but it is kind of weired (for a lack of a better word) that he rocks at the age of 60(ish) I hope I can rock like that when I'm near that age. |

Well,people are just interested that's all. I've been curious as to how old Dio is myself. People love a mystery. |

He probably takes care of himself-unlike most "rockers". It's still pretty amazing he's that age and still sounds so good. Now Jon Lord's around that age but he looks that old! Not that that's a bad thing. |
