Can't wait!

Re: The Ozzman

I saw Black Sabbath in the 70's. They played 7 or 8 songs and then Ozzie
announced "We've blown our amps we cannot continue" and they walked
off the stage. :eek: My friend Bob who was a Sabbath nut just about had
a stroke. He got all kinds of flack all the way home and for quite awhile after :D

Have fun Skargo. :)

Re: The Ozzman

Sorry guys, I would not waste a dime to see him. Probably cannot remember words to a song, and does he not wear diapers because of a loss of bodily control from drug use. I do like a few of his songs from the 80's but as a poster boy for those who want to know what drugs do to you, there it is. Please do not flame me for my opinion. I use him as as example to my kids of what drugs can do to you. so in a way he is performing a public service.

Thanks for the negative post! He is drug free now, he always has world class musicians and I don't pay for my concert tickets anyway :p How do you know he can't remember words if you wouldn't waste a dime to see him? :confused:
He is 61 years old, clean and sober, and actually does remember all the words, and puts on a hell of a show.
So maybe he can be a message that despite drug use for years, it's never too late to go sober.

Besides, I'll let you in on a little secret, MOST rock and roll artists used drugs or alcohol at some point in their careers :eek:

Re: The Ozzman

I was very impressed. I hope I can do half what he does when I'm 61.
He remembered the words AND we understood everything he said between too.

Good time, sat 6th row from the stage on the floor.

His guitarist did a good job, big shoes to fill!

Halford opened, Mr Halford is still amazing, after all these years.

It was awesome, we were close enough to get hit with Ozzy's foam gun,

Halford performed 6-7 Halford tunes, and 3 Priest tunes, even though two were remakes(The Green Manaleshi, and Diamonds and Rust). The original JP tune was Jawbreaker.

It's funny, the first time I saw Rob Halford was in that same venue, 28 years ago on the Screaming for Vengeance tour. I sat 1st row for that one!
