Seattle got one hell of a show back in Oct!
I've seen Ozzy off and on since 1986 and this I was the first time I ever saw him where no Sabbath songs other than Paranoid was played.. The show was good and probably amazing for those who haven't seen Ozzy before as he was able to keep his voice going through the whole set and didn't have the problems he has in recent years on the Ozzfest tours with cutting sets short,etc.
It was sorta full circle for me personally as it was 21 years ago I saw Ozzy for the first time and there was a group of kids maybe 16 being the oldest sitting next to me getting into the show HARD. smoking bowls every song, rocking out. It was cool to see that. Funny when Ozzy played "I don't know", that seemed to be the only song that they hadn't heard before. I kinda felt a bit old when I noticed all the people there with they're kids! One dude had like 4 kids I was thinking WOW at $50 bucks a pop he's a huge Ozzy fan. Considering Ozzy tickets in '86 were 10 bucks taking the family to a concert isn't exactly a cheap outing anymore. But we might as well blow our cash on something.
"I Don't know", That song really was great to hear live once again, that was the first song that in 1982 when I got my mom to lend me 7 bucks to go buy a tape and I picked up Blizzard Of Ozz from the tape section at K-Mart and popped it in a portable tape player I had. I remember the opening effects and then the "rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr BAM!" of the opening riff. That was a musical discovery that will always be etched into my brain.
I would of liked to of heard "Fire In the Sky" as it's my favorite song off of the Wicked album and, funny thing I followed Ozzy all the way up to Ultimate Sin then, dropped out for Wicked and picked back up again when he came out with No More Tears. So it would of been very cool to hear that live but oh well. No tunes off of Diary or Ultimate Sin or his last 2 albums before Black Rain.
Black Rain is a good album it sounds a lot like that heavy dark Marylin Manson riff you hear to me. I think it's much better than Osmosis and probably a bit better than Down To Earth (Although I thought Down To Earth kicked some ass) . Did anyone notice you can't buy a copy of Speak Of The Devil on the website? I know Ozzy hated that album because it was done to get out of Sharon's dad's recording contract but still, it was a killer album!
In any case this has gone well beyond a concert review, overall was a good show, if I was seeing Ozzy for the first time I'd be more ecstatic in my review. I do think the Portland crowd was mellow but then again I'm from Dallas and there the crowds are known to be some of the wildest in the country. I still get a kick out of Ozzy's "crazier you get the louder we'll play" banter, but let's face it folks, the guys running the sound aren't turning up the levels but, it's a good show biz bit!
Well that's it in a nutshell.l Ozzy is still around, looking good, singing well, and playing live.
Catch him if you can.

Tony Iommi = God, his arch angels are Ozzy Osbourne, Dave Walker, Ronnie James Dio, Ian Gillan, Dave Donato, Glenn Hughes, Ray Gillen, Tony Martin, and Bill Ward (bassically everyone who sang on a song labeled Black Sabbath)
I'm actually very pleasantly surprised at the line-up. Not a Metallica fan but they've been on the top of my "get to know" list. and Hell Yeah gotta be killer live. And you KNOW Zakk is gonna be a part of the Dime tribute (sure hope Phil is part of that but I'm not holding my breath. But where the hell is Ozzy and BLS? An Ozzfest without either of them? Thats f***ing blasphemy/ But f*** I'm gonna see the greatest line-up in history with the Masters Of Metal tour of (Sabbath technically H&H, Judas Priest, and Motorhead). But I might change my mind and go to Ozzfest this year after seeing these bands.

I dunno, Spiderman 3 was the biggest pices of crap I've EVER seen. Some of the worst acting I've ever seen. X-men 3 wasn't as bad as that but it wasn't too far off. There will definitely be another Iron Man (might technically be called War Machine, via the army buddy of his and the extra suit "next time...") You probably saw the Hulk preview, looked much better than the one a few years back. I can also forsee another Fantastic 4 (perhaps a Silver Surfer movie, via end of F2 with the surf board) and maybe X4 (Magneto and the chess board at the very end of X3. Don't get me wrong I love the movies and I'll most definitely see another Marvel flcik but I just hate the feeling that I've wasted my money after seeing one. I DO have HIGH hopes of Iron Man 2 with most of the story out of the way they could do some really really cool s*** with it. f*** give me one of those suits and you'll never hear from me again, lol.

How Many of Us of the Craft Out There..MERRY MEET
I listen to the greatest Lord of Heavy Metal.so how many other Pagans or Witches in the world. I wish he would do some Pagan chants of songs out there but in a heavy metal verision on the "The Cirle is Open". Well so how many OZ fans are Pagan to Dark Arts out here.

I'm a fan because
Ozzy Osbourne was the start out for Rock N Roll, and he's probably had the best success known to the rock and roll history. Everyone knows the name "Ozzy Osbourne." He's my hero, along with the most amazing guitarist to walk the earth, Randy Rhoads, R.I.P. He was, and still is remembered, and still is the greatest. Ozzy makes songs about deep emotion, purpose, family, and romance. People used to say, if you listen to Ozzy records you're going to hell, and well, if that's the case, I'll see all you in Hell
