Heaven and Hell

[Atomic_Rob]

I can't stand Ozzy's solo stuff, especially with Zakk Wylde and the fucking gay love in between those 2 in recent years.

I just don't like Dio in anyway shape or form, classic rock magazine gave away a DVD with the mag with Ronnie playing Long Live Rock n Roll at the Astoria and it was absolutely horrendous, you say Ozzy is washed out, I couldnt understand a word Dio was singing.

I checked out Kill the King on a free compilation also with CR and it was pure fucking cheese and it was recorded in 1976 with Richie Blackmore.

Then again Rainbow only employed fag vocalists. Next reunion, Cherone.

Sabbath were a much more exciting band with Dio. Compare "Neon Knights" with "Black Sabbath".

Are you saying that you prefer Dio-era Sabbs to Ozzy-era?

[Shaun Ponsonby]

Yes.

Well, I could tell you why I think you're wrong, but I'm sure you've heard it all before....

Like you said, each to their own....

I still like Ozzy-era stuff, but...

1) I can't listen to Ozzy anymore because of what he's become, it's hard to take him seriously on those dark songs

2) I find some of that stuff a bit dull. Heavy...but dull. ("bom...bom..bom" for 5 minutes?)

There is nothing Ozzy could do to stop me listening to Ozzy-era Sabbath, all the stupid things he done in the past, I just look over that and think of the person he used to be before he got married a second time and had those 2 cunts for children.

The songs themselves are just magic, After Forever, Hole in the Sky, Symptom Of The Universe, Meglomania, Hand of Doom.

Each to their own most definitely with Sabbath, everyone has their favourite era and I guess its time Iommi and Geezer moved on after a number of tours with Ozzy.

Be nice to see Ozzy Sabbath again, they were just incredible at Download in 2005

Really? Every review I read said they were shite...or rather Ozzy's performance was. They didn't even vother to show them on TV.

Well just so long as no-one starts arguing the merits of Tony Martin...

Phil Lynott summed it up nicely: DON'T BELIEVE A WORD

Sharon didn't allow the show to be broadcast because it was apparently coming out as an official DVD that we've not heard of since Iommi dropped it into an interview just after the show.

I've got a Pro-Shot DVD with soundboard audio and it absolutely owns.

Actually Ozzy's performance in the past few years has been shit. He sings off key, sounds like he's struggling sometimes. I have one show where you can't understand what he's saying he's mumbling so bad.

Any more word on the Heaven & Hell dates?

Its all down too opinions, I think hes been singing well, you don't.

Opinions are like arseholes, everyone's got one.

[Shaun Ponsonby]

Or like the clap...you've either got one or you haven't.

Anyone heard anything about European dates yet?
