Paul Warner/WireImageA hologram of the late Ronnie James Dio made its live debut at the Wacken Open Air festival in Germany this past weekend. In case you missed the digital return of the metal legend, the hologram’s creator, Eyellusion, has shared official footage of the performance.

The Dio hologram uses the singer’s actual live vocals. During the Wacken performance, the hologram jammed with Dio Disciples, which features members of the Dio band, on the song “We Rock.”

Next year, the Dio hologram will embark on a world tour, the full details of which have yet to be announced.

Dio died of stomach cancer at the age of 67 in 2010. In addition to fronting his namesake band, he also sang with Rainbow, Elf, Black Sabbath and the Sabbath spinoff group Heaven and Hell.
