Please send list submissions to list@black-sabbath.com.

NOTE: Only one submission. I contemplated not sending out a list like
that, but I really am trying to keep on track. Out of 3500 users,
just one reply from the last one? Yeesh!

This Issue's Lyric:

"I'm just another back street kid
Rock 'n roll music is the only thing I really dig
Can't stop the music going round inside my head
I'm a rock 'n roll soldier, gonna play it until I'm dead
Nobody I know is gonna take my rock 'n roll away from me"
(Back Street Kids - Technical Ecstasy 1976)

The below was taken from one of the RSS feeds on Joe's site from
http://www.hiphop-elements.com/article/read/4/18516/1/

To me, it is exactly why I'm thrilled to see H&H touring and seeing Tony
work with Glenn Hughes and moving on.

For 10 years or so, Ozzy wouldn't do a record, nothing was happening. Tony
and Geezer finally branched out. There's more new material releases to
prepare a one Dio Era Black Box record in 3 months than in 10 years with
Ozzy. Now, now that they finally have something good that's making money,
Ozzy's back to garanteing new records and tours and 40th anniversary tours
and generally talking smack.

If Tony wanted recognition for Sabbath, he's got it. If Tony wanted
respect, he's getting it with the proof H&H is pushing and if Tony just
wants to branch out, he's got that with Glenn Hughes as a great partner to
try things out.

And when Tony simply wants to be Tony and release a full Tony record, let
him call Tony Martin and Geoff Nichols back and get that going (Geezer's
welcomed -- Cross Purposes line-up was very strong -- still rocked out to I
Witness today -- LOVE IT)

I say Thank you to Black Sabbath, it's all yours Ozzy and you can say
whatever you want about it as you try to excuse Down to Hear and Black Rain
while I continue to enjoy the master playing freely with Martin, Dio and
Hughes as he pleases without having to EVER suffer through another dreaded
Who's Fooling Who clichefest.

Thought ?
**********************************************

Ozzy Osbourne has given up making plans for a Black Sabbath 40th
anniversary tour - because his bandmates cannot make their minds up.

The rocker first heard there was a big tour planned and the next thing he
knew, it had been called off.

And now Osbourne is tired of all the confusion.

He tells the Sydney Morning Herald newspaper, "If it happens, it happens,
if it don't, it don't... You get a phone call: "It's off!" Then
it's back on again."

"You know what? I don't want to say yes, and I don't want to say no,
because I've put my foot in my mouth so many times. If it's meant to
happen, it will happen."

Osbourne's former Sabbath bandmates are currently touring with Ronnie
James Dio as Heaven & Hell.
