Holy Diver

Some of you may remember over the summer that I made it my mission to absorb every song on the Tupac Greatest Hits 2CD set by listening to it straight for 8 hours a day everyday while I sewed...

Now I am on a Dio kick. How much is too much Holy Diver? Not enough.

Speaking of kicks. I want a Sidekick. As you can see from this website, I can get it for free-ish providing that I sign up for a T-Mobile cell phone/data plan. Thing is, I don't want to use it as a phone...I already have a good phone and a great plan with Cingular. I just want the data plan with T-Mobil but if I just have that then I don't get one of the rebates. Does anyone know if I get the Sidekick and the cell phone/data plan and get the rebates, can I turn around a month later and cancel the cell phone plan and keep the data plan? Anyone? Help.



This is me in junior high, circa 1983, Rochester, NY. I had a perm. Also, you can't tell but I am wearing Nike sneaker skates. See that rock n' roll bird playing a Flying V? I drew that right before my friend Rachel snapped this picture. See that red heart dripping blood at the top of the door? Drew that too, which I named "sacred heart" and gave it its own word logo. Later that year, I moved to Boston and brought Sacred Heart with me and introduced it to my new friend Kymba. Also, faintly, is a Def Leppard logo that I had done earlier in the year. In the upper left hand corner of this door is my signature which says Heather Clark and trails into a smaller version of Sacred Heart. I named myself Heather Clark because I was in love with Steve Clark form Def Leppard and, obviously, I was gonna marry him...in my sneaker skates. (At that time I had also named myself De Lar which is a WHOLE other story). I have been rock n' roll all my life. If anyone can tell me what that bird drawing is a logo for, I will buy you a beer. Ajax?

Can I see a bigger version of this photo, please? I can't see it very well and I'm destined to win.

ps. Check out this amazing website. They have mpfrees of tons of early Dio stuff. Ronnie and the Redcaps! Elf! The Electric Elves!

It's all awesome. The site is slow for downloading though.

I am surely not destined to win, however, good sportsmanship forces me to give it a go. Is it:

1. Identity/brand refresh for The Eagles?
2. Identity/brand refresh for The Yardbirds?
3. Logo for the "band" you had just formed with your junior high friends, titled either "The V-Birds" or "The Vultures"
4. Identity/brand refresh for this band?

i love that you consider a 13 year old might be refreshing band brands. hahaha.

in my mind, any hint will give it away! but here's one: guitar players need it.

I love that you're back on the Dio!

I can't make out the picture very well, but Ernie Ball strings have an eagle on the package and clayton guitar picks have an eagleon them. Do I get a prize?

the last in line,

Ride, ride, RIDE THE TIGER!

You absorbed two CDs worth of rap? I had the goal of memorizing just Wu-Tang's Da Mystery of Chessboxin' and ended up only barely being able to recite Masta Killa's verse.
