BLACK SABBATH TO HEADLINE OZZFEST 2004; FIRST LIVE APPEARANCE SINCE 2001

LOS ANGELES, May 18, 2004 ¯ Call it a mandate from the people. Call it a rumor that just won’t die. Call it what you want, but since the April 27 release of the CD/DVD BLACK BOX: THE COMPLETE ORIGINAL BLACK SABBATH (1970-1978), there’s been enormous public demand for a Black Sabbath tour. Original Black Sabbath members OZZY OSBOURNE, TONY IOMMI and GEEZER BUTLER (as well as Osbourne-solo band member Mike Bordin, on drums) – will storm the U.S., performing 26 shows on OZZfest, starting July 10 in Hartford, Conn.

The reviews of Black Box have been phenomenal: Rolling Stone: “[black Box] sounds even better... in this eight-CD/one DVD set than it did on vinyl... all the Sabbath you’ll ever need. 4 STARS.” Spin noted, “Black Box collects the first eight albums... all skull-crushingly heavy.” For its part, Details declared: “This is evil,” calling the anthology “a boot crushing a windpipe... teeth on bone.” And Time Out New York proclaimed, “Black Box compiles a body of work more central to modern, popular music than that of any band since The Beatles.”

OZZfest had already unleashed the biggest buzz of the upcoming tour season, with OZZY (now as a member of BLACK SABBATH) to headline the main stage along with a fistful of rock legends, including a reunited Judas Priest, Slayer, Dimmu Borgir, Superjoint Ritual (featuring Phil Anselmo) and Zakk Wylde’s Black Label Society. Fans checking out OZZfest’s Second Stage will get a real treat with a “get close to the fans” set by headliners Slipknot. Hatebreed, Lamb of God, Atreyu and 10 other up-and-comers will keep (hell) fires burning there throughout the day.

Hurrah. Even though it won't be the same without their Randy Rhoades(R.I.P.) and it won't be with the original drummer, Bill Ward.

Rage Against the Machine-Battle of Los Angeles

I bought the album when I was 12.

Probably the Vines-Winning Days , or Contraband by Velvet Revolver.

Led Zeppelin

Any rock band out right now wouldn't sound the same as they do now if it weren't them. Every rock band has either been influenced by Led Zeppelin or influenced by a band that was influenced by Led Zeppelin.

I think bad blood between the two could stem from Garnett saying the past few seasons before this one that he didn't have any real help when asked why the T-Wolves were elimated from the playoffs each year in the first round.

Fucking Shiann. No one likes her. I would have loved to see the MSG crowd boo her off the stage even more than Jeri.

Mine:

Metallica-Sanitarium Opening with mini solo(Mostly because I can play it).

Am I the only other that got annoyed with Chauncey Billups looking like in 3OT that he wanted to make the big play. He would either miss the shot or turn the ball over when trying to pass it. I wish he fouled out instead of Hamilton.

Start with

Master of Puppets

There's no way Lakers are going to lose this series. Even if they lost at Staples Center(which they won't) they would have one more chance to win.

I really like him too and glad he's back. This the best news of a rapper returning that I would want besides Dr. Dre putting out another solo album instead of producing.

So close no matter how far

Couldn't be much more from the heart

Forever trusting who we are

And nothing else matters

Never opened myself this way

Life is ours, we live it our way

All these words I don't just say

And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you

Every day for us something new

Open mind for a different view

And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do

Never cared for what they know

But I know

So close no matter how far

Couldn't be much more from the heart

Forever trusting who we are

And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do

Never cared for what they know

But I know

Never opened myself this way

Life is ours, we live it our way

All these words I don't just say

Trust I seek and I find in you

Every day for us something new

Open mind for a different view

And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they say

Never cared for games they play

Never cared for what they do

Never cared for what they know

And I know

So close no matter how far

Couldn't be much more from the heart

Forever trusting who we are

No nothing else matters

Metallica-Nothing Else Matters

I'd trade Mashburn since he'll either retire or just injure himself again anyways. The Hornets are screwed in the West so no matter who they get as coach they're lucky if they even make it to the playoffs.

We need the funk, gotta have that funk.

The Strokes are good, but not worth some of the praise they have been getting by some critics. ... Yeah I don't know why I have a subscription to the Rolling Stone either.

You can say that when LA wins a game in San Antonio. Until then, No.
