why do no big bands like ozzy or maiden or megadeth ever come to Belfast, Northern Ireland it really annoyin the closest that big bands come is the o2 in Dublin, Southern Ireland we now have a 10,000 person at least stadium and the last big band to play it was judas priest in febuary 09 and thats it motorhead recently visited the ulster hall which at most holds 2,000 people in it at a time its really annoyin. PLEASE COME TO BELFAST

This is always an interesting topic. Here are my choices in no particular order:

Biohazard: After Forever
Pantera: Hole In The Sky
Faith No More: War Pigs
Anthrax: Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
Witchery: Neon Knights
Sepultura: Symptom Of The Universe

Tell me what you think and any others you like

My name is Andy Green, long time radio guy turned writer! Read my story about the day I came face to face with Ozzy Osbourne!!

Gus G is a terrible choice to replace Zakk. Zakk was great on classics like No More Tears, and No Rest For The Wicked, but lets face it he's lost his touch. Anyone who plays a f***ing Epiphone shaped like a coffin has lost it. That said i don't think that Gus G would be a very good replacement, if you listen to Firewind most of their riffs are simple and unsophisticated, Ozzy's music has been known for not only great lyrics but also grade A guitar work, Gus G would put the Rest Of the Osbourne legacy to shame. I think Ozzy should have open auditions in LA like he did in the 80s last time he did that he found Randy Rhoads and that wasn't so bad was it?

I dont think is was any good as far as I read the reviews but anyway.

All year I've been reading different things about Ozzy's new album being released in November of this year (he didn't do ozzfest this year for THAT reason) so is that album still happening? i havn't heard any singles from it nor any advertising of the album..Does anyone else know what's happening?

I love Ozzy. I REALLY LOVE OZZY!!!! There are times when my love for him hurts. I have OCD. So I can obsess over things. But I often wondered if there are other people that feel the same way I do? I sometime have physical need. i sometime wish that I could just have the chance to tell him how I really feel about him. Iknow it might seem unhealthy, but all i want is to be with, meld minds with him, to just be...

Has anyone heard or seen something about it?

Hello Sir

I am writing in the hopes that you will read this post. Though i don't have much hope of a responce on your part, I want to express my humble and absolute admiration for you art, your life's work and the courage you have shown throughout all the bumps that you have it throughout your life.

I have first encountered you with Black Sabbath when I was barely 16 thanks to my brothers that pulled me off Grease. Dont ask any further on the subject I realize now that I was straying of the wrong path. I am now 43 and still a fan though I may not have seen many of you shows, money being what it is for a middle class computer programmer. I have loved every single album you have cut over the years and have even sung for a while song from Sabbath when I was 17 to 19.
