Wacka Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 What he's gone through, I'm amazed he's still alive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Success Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Has anyone ever seen Ozzy & Brady in the same room together? Makes you wonder... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
US Egg Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Black Sabbath’s first album merits a classic ranking. Ozzy’s No More Tears album was surprisingly good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gugny Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I remember seeing him on his No More Tours tour … and that was in 1992. Ozzy makes Brett Favre look decisive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL - first time I saw Ozzy was in '81 - with Randy Rhoads. Great show, opener was Def Leppard and second band was Joe Perry Project. Getting old indeed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draconator Posted February 2, 2023 Author Share Posted February 2, 2023 I saw Ozfest in like 2003. (Don't remember the exact year). Rob Zombie and System Of A Down were on the bill. I'll never forget Zombie kicking a guy sitting in the front row, who was actually sitting during Zombie's set, kicking the guy out of his seat and giving the seat to a kid at the very top of the lawn seats. Got in the crowd and everything. What I remember about Ozzy's set is that he had a water fetish. The vocals sounded spot on though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw some no name band with a leaping blonde maned lead singer open for Sabbath in the late ‘70’s. …..think they were called the Vanhalens? 🙃 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at the Scope in Norfolk, VA. Layne Staley had just broken his leg in a motorcycle accident either that day or the day before. After Sepultura was done and they got AiC's stage set, the lights went out and a single spotlight hit a wheelchair at center stage. Staley did most of the show on crutches and they had some fun with the wheelchair. Zakk Wylde came out and sang background vocals for Man in the Box. Such a great night of music. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gugny Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Just now, jayg said: I saw that show too. 91 or 92? I have the ticket somewhere. Nov. of 1992. 3 minutes ago, jayg said: I saw that show too. 91 or 92? I have the ticket somewhere. The other concert I saw in Virginia was Motley Crue/Whitesnake in 1987 at the Richmond Coliseum. For that one, I was visiting my brother, who was in the Navy; by the time the Ozzy show came around 5 years later, I was in the Navy, too, LOL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Honestly he should have hung it up 25 years ago. I saw him live then and he was dreadful. Just dragging himself around the stage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have lived in Richmond since 1975. I was probably at that show too but a lot of the 80s are a bit fuzzy. I know I've seen them separately but don't remember them together so maybe I missed that one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On some interview I saw years ago, he straight up said that if it wasn't for his wife, he would have been dead some time in his 20s (I think). May have been slightly later than that. He was lying around passed out drunk for days in an apartment (I think in LA) with empty pizza boxes on the floor and for some reason, his wife took interest in him and kept him going.
