09/29/2010
. (Gibson) A new CD/DVD set, titled Neon Nights: 30 Years of Heaven & Hell, is being released on November 16. Neon Nights features Heaven & Hell (Ronnie James Dio, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Vinny Appice) performing in 2009 at the Wacken Open Air festival in Germany.

A press release sets the scene: "On Thursday July 30, 2009, Heaven & Hell took to the stage at the famous Wacken festival in Germany as part of the tour in support of their album The Devil You Know, released earlier in the year.

Although nobody knew at the time, it was to be Ronnie James Dio's last filmed concert appearance before his death in May 2010 from stomach cancer. Heaven & Hell were on fantastic form and played a set blending tracks from the newly released album with classics from their Black Sabbath days. This is a truly fitting tribute to one of the legendary voices of rock." - Tracklisting
