Hi everyone,
Just a quick note to let you know I have accepted Ronnie's offer to join Dio. We will be touring with Iron Maiden this summer (July through September) in the United States.
Hope to see you there--WD

I'm not sure at this point if he would stay with Dio permanently or he would be back in RATT after this tour, but I, as a long-time-Warren fan, would like to respect his decision whatever it is or it will be.
We love you, Warren !!
