Black Sabbath and Ronnie James Dio together again... this time as 'Heaven and Hell'... with a world wide tour... and special guests Megadeth and Machine Head...! I saw this show at the Forum near Los Angeles on April 25th... this show KICKED ASS!!! and the best part is, they're coming back to the USA in September...! be sure to check out the photos...
New albums...! New music...!
black Sabbath-The Dio Years - remastered Sabbath plus 3 new songs... got my copy... the 3 new songs are great, with 'Ear In The Wall' being my favorite... these guys should do a whole new album...
Black Rain - Ozzy's new album with all new songs... got my copy... good music, poor packaging... I pre-ordered mine and I got my code for my ozzfest tickets with it...
Black Sabbath - Live At Hammersmith Odeon - limited edition CD from Rhino Handmade... got my copy... number 406 out of 5,000... excellent live album... this is what 1982's 'Live Evil' should have been... if you didn't get a copy, then it sucks to be you... be sure to click on the link to see what you missed...
Ozzfest for free... got my tickets for the July 21st show in Devore... about the same spot in loge as last year, which means it's gonna be a great show...
Another album AND A DVD... these guys own my soul this year... Heaven & Hell: Live at Radio City Music Hall... CD and DVD recorded at the beginning of this year's tour in New York City... released on August 28th... buy them separately or... there's also a deluxe cd/dvd boxed edition... this is a limited release of only 5,000 copies and yes, it's the one I got...
Black Sabbath, aka Heaven and Hell, came back to the states and toured in September and October... and with them this time was Alice Cooper and Queensryche...! we saw them on October 6th in Irvine... down front... in the pit... right fucking in front of Tony Iommi...! this was seriously better than the first time Sabbath came through the States last April and May... be sure to check out the photos...
Roni Benise and his band came to town and played one of our local casinos on October 19th... and we got front row...! Spanish Flamenco guitar at its very best... if you ever get the chance to see them live, don't pass it up... your ears and eyes will thank you... be sure to check out the photos...
Guess where I was on November 30th...? Ozzy Osbourne and Rob Zombie are on tour together, again... and on November 30th they were at the Staples Center in Los Angeles... the show kicked ass...! except for opening act In This Moment, who totally sucked monkey balls...
