MONDAY MASS WITH BLACK SABBATH!

In support of the newly released album Reunion, Ozzy Osborne and original members of Black Sabbath Bill Ward and Geezer Butler (Tony Iommi won’t be there due to a prior committment.) are coming to Vancouver to enjoy an evening with their fans, take some pictures, and speak to the masses as 99.3 The Fox broadcasts […]

DAVID LETTERMAN DATE CONFUSION

In the Mailing List issue I sent out today, I had a remark about the David Letterman appearance. The newsletter email that got sent out from Sony Records today with the tour dates mentions this, but they list the appearance as Thursday the 28th. I didn’t bother to pay that much attention to the date, […]

SELLING MY SOUL DRUMMER CREDIT

As some of you have noticed (and asked me), there is no drummer credit for the new studio track, Selling My Soul. I decided to check into it, and asked Bill Ward’s Production Manager. He tells me that it’s a drum machine, and that Bill’s laid down track was (in the band’s opinion) not "in […]

REUNION TOUR DATES ANNOUNCED!

Sabbath has released the tour dates for the 1999 Reunion Tour. I’ve got ’em online on my Tour Dates Page.

REUNION UPDATE

The band is out on "tour" autographing copies of Reunion. Once the tour is over, I’ll post some stories here that have been submitted to the Mailing List. Anyway, I was sent five pictures of the band at the Philadelphia signing by Damian Muziani. If you’d like to see what the band looked like in […]

RANDOM STUFF

Reunion is in stores tomorrow. Make sure and pick up a copy, or if you want to order it over the internet, you can do so here. The first of the in-store signing is technically tonight at midnight. From what I’m finding out, most stores seem to be having a policy where you have to […]

PSYCHO MAN SINGLE ON AIR

Psycho Man is making the rounds of your local radio station (assuming they play music like this, and don’t play other crap). Call ’em up and bug them to play it today! :) Speaking of the Psycho Man single, here’s some pictures from the CD itself (I don’t have this yet – once I do, […]

METALLICA COVERS BLACK SABBATH

Metallica is due to release a double studio album in November of 1998. Entitled Garage, Inc., this disc will be a compliation of all the covers they’ve released on B-sides and whatnot over their career (with several newly recorded ones, too). Anyways, Black Sabbath makes this disc, and the title that Metallica is covering is […]

With the impending release of Reunion, Epic Records/Sony have set up a web site of their own for the disc. It’s at http://www.epiccenter.com/blacksabbath. Go check it out. It’s got a Real Video clip of the band’s history, as well as a 30 second snippet of Psycho Man. Just a small word of warning if you’re […]
