Finnsnes went very well! Two nights packed with covers, just playing through a bunch of personal favorites from great bands like Cream, Kiss, Led Zeppelin and of course Dio! We played three tracks from Dio/Rainbow (Man On The Silver Mountain, Catch The Rainbow & Holy Diver), paying our respect to the late, great Ronnie James Dio. The best hard rock/heavy metal singer of all time! You can now listen to “Man On The Silver Mountain” live from Ottos!
