Now THAT'S what a legitimate 'reunion' is supposed to look like!!!
Geezer isn't replaced by Tony's kid or anything stupid like that......I'm fuckin' jealous.
I plan on catching every single show that comes my way.
Kickass!!

Yeah, but then Geezer was never the weakest link in Sabbath, Bill Ward was.
Great drummer, but how many times has his health taken him out of the mix? Let's hope he actually makes it to the tour, but my cynical side tells me they already have Vinny Appice on standby. Or (Satan help us all) Jack Osbourne.

They're headlining Donnington one day next year; Metallica are headlining another day (and playing all of the Blaclk Album). That's something I need to see.
Does my life need another dissapointing 'reunion' album though? I think not.

it has been discussed......Yea you only wonder why VH cannot get rolling like back in the day.... Wonder if BS and VH will be taking another picture together on tour....although Dave is probably the only one that can still get down on a knee and stand back up under his own power these days.
Another one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!
If it's humanly possible to get a decent record out of these guys, Rick Rubin is the man to do it. Frankly, I wish Van Halen had gone with him too.
If Sharon can keep her grubby paws out of it this might be worth seeing.
Uh-oh. The album is to be produced by Rick Rubin. I'm not exactly impressed by his work with heavy bands, particularly the disasters he performed with AC/DC and Metallica.

...and ZZ Top.
That remains to be seen, as the ZZ Top album hasn't been released yet. The only evidence is a track that was leaked to the internet a few months ago, and is neither complete nor is it credited to Rubin. Even so, it's not too bad, and the chorus is killer.

Hopefully, Ozzy doesn't screw this up. Let Iommi and Geezer write this thing and go in and do your lyrics and vocals. No bullshit allowed.
Kind of scary isn't it? Black Sabbath and Van Halen reunite and tour in 2012.
Black Sabbath + Van Halen = stadium tour?
RIDE TO LIVE, LIVE TO RIDE
LET `EM ROLL ONE MORE TIME
Now THAT might be a stadium show worth going to...MIGHT be...
Van Halen really need to ditch Wolfie, though. The kid brings nada to the mix. Just get Biff Malibu back and shake it one more time for the fans.
Agreed it'll be interesting to see if Bill Ward actually stays in the band long enough this time to complete the album AND the tour.
Scramby eggs and bacon.
I sure as hell hope not,
Maybe with Mikey back in his rightful spot, it would be a different story, but if you put the current version of VH alongside a band that clearly knows more about the concept of what a 'reunion' actually means, the result could be downright embarrassing.
As a true fan of the real Van Halen, the last thing I want to see is Sabbath getting their revenge for '78.
I've seen / heard footage of 1978 Sabbath, and they sounded pretty good. Like, if they were able to tour these days with that amount of energy, enthusiasm and precision, it'd be a good show.
Yeah, Van Wolfie would look a bit pale next to a full-on Sabbath reunion firing on all cylinders.

Steve Baily.
Why? No reason other then he is one experienced session man who most likely can tolerate Eddie's shit while receiving a paycheck.
I certainly wouldn't call 'Death Magnetic' a disaster. It's not a classic, but it's definitely a good record.
The Black Sabbath reunion actually made the national news here today.
Amazing how things change.
If a good amount of your fan based is opts to rip/download your latest album not from you, but from the soundtrack of a video game because it sounds better than your official release, then it's a disaster.
A new album in the fall of 2012????? C'mon man......They're going to take a year to release this album?
And Wolvesbane, killed their careers.
ZZ Top with a lifesuckin', Nickelback-chorus. Lord, have mercy...
Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?
It's like putting up a YouTube of Bach and playing Chopstix on your Bontempi...
Yeah, that did suck.
LMAO. You nailed it.
(decent guitar tone at least)
Iommi was on a roll in the seventies though. A new album every year, never made the same one twice. Granted, not all of it was accessible at first listen since the guy at times just hacksawed parts together but it worked when you're used to it.
Hi, Thrills.
Hey Kristy.
Good call on the Terry Jacks song. What a nightmare.
Music to slit the wrists to. I would have re-edited it so he dies in the middle of the first verse. I've got a machine gun sample from a Monty Python album.
Well you know Thrills us 1% elite Zeppelin haters have to stick together.
It's funny. I wonder if Steve would do it.... I remember him telling me a story once about when he was in school ( I can't remember if it was Miami or North Texas) he was offered to play bass for a new country band that was calling themselves "Alabama". He refused with the attitude that he was a Jazz player and didn't want to know from Commercial Country music.Steve Baily.
Why? No reason other then he is one experienced session man who most likely can tolerate Eddie's shit while receiving a paycheck.
He said he kicked himself in the ass for years as he would have been a Millionaire at a very young age.
I'm curious if he would say yes if VH asked.. He did say yes to Jethro Tull and did an album with them.
Anyone notice that Geezer doesn't seem too thrilled about this reunion?

I'm listening to Queen News of the World and there's a bonus track of remixed We Will Rock You and right on the case on the back cover it says (1991 Bonus remix ruined by Rick Rubin)
Yeah, I have that one as well. I think they were part of the rereleases done quite a while ago by some weird label called Hollywood Records. They put out one or two of these bizarre compilations featuring track listings that seemed to be chosen off of a dart board. They put out "remixed" albums of everything up to Hot Space, but still managed to screw up the Live Killers album by making it sound as bad as a bootleg and failing to include the complete show.

The Hollywood Remasters were terrible. They managed to fuck up the beginning of "Too Late" entirely. Didn't buy any of the others after that. Went to the Crown Jewels box, which were remastered properly. Of course they didn't have any of the "Bonus Remixes" but most of them were crap anyway. The hip hop remix of "We Are The Champions" was just fucking awful. I've still got it in Hell's Torture Jukebox somewhere, but I would never intentionally listen to it again.

I'll bet you have a copy of the Jeff Fenholt demos, don't you?
Hollywood Records = Disney.
I have just about all the demos available in bootleg form from the 1980s and some from the 90s. Jeff Fenholdt sessions, stuff with Ray Gillen, Dehumanizer demos. More than I can recall off the top of my head.
He seemed a bit understated at the press conference, but who knows? I mean, it felt like Heaven and Hell still had some juice left in them, then sadly RJD passed away...and honestly Ozzy these days doesn't have much to offer besides his reality show notoriety. This type of fame is useful in terms of making a media splash, but all those histrionics don't necessarily translate into creative energy in terms of actually writing songs.
Having said all that, it'll be interesting to hear what the band can come up with. Iommi, Geezer and Ward still have the potential to create something special that can transcend the rather lackluster musical results which have popped up on Ozzy's last several studio releases.
Me too. I've even got the live disc they did with Tony Martin, all the Iommi solo stuff, and all of the Geezer. I thought the Black Science record that Geezer did was killer by the way.
