The following statement has been posted on Tony Iommi's website: "We have to announce that all forthcoming Heaven And Hell European shows have been cancelled as sadly Ronnie isn't well enough to tour this summer. We hope that everyone understands and want to thank fans and industry colleagues for their continuing support at this time."
Last year Ronnie James Dio was diagnosed with stomach cancer. Read more here.

Not surprising really - the summer dates seemed on the optimistic side from the start. Hope Dio are on the way to a full and complete recovery...

I think it was a stupid decision for them to book all these shows when they didn't know Ronnie would be 100% better by the time. Bloodstock will need to find another headliner now.

Well, we had it coming I guess, it was too good to be true...Agree with Baz, they shouldn't have made the commitment in the first place, not with Ronnie's condition...It was gonna be the first time I see Ronnie live, and definitely one of the reasons I got myself a ticket for the Sonisphere show, but Ronnie's all that's important now - all my best wishes!!! Still, I hope a replacement will be announced...

Disappointing but we all saw it coming. Apparently Dio is doing well so thank Thor for that

Disappointing, but not surprising.

Well, this was pretty obvious since the beginning, Ronnie has cancer, not a simple headache...

Not at all surprised. Would actually have been surprised if they showed up. Hope you get well soon Dio! Anyway, give me Dream Theater now!

Imo it would have been somewhat of a disgrace to see them play before The Big 4 of Thrash. i might be idealistic here, but i think in terms of musical quality and influence, it's those 4 bands who should open for H&H, and definitely not the other way around.
