Ozzy Injured in Accident

Ozzy Osbourne was injured yesterday in an all terrain vehichle accident at his estate in England. In short, he crashed and got pretty injured. He has a broken collarbone, six broken ribs, & a broken vertebrae in his neck. None of this is considered to be life threatening. He's undergone some emergency surgery, and is recuperating now. There's been several wire stories about this, here's some of them:

* Ozzy badly hurt in crash
* Osbourne recuperating in intensive care
* Sharon Osbourne rushes to Ozzy's bedside
* Osbourne resting after emergency surgery
* Rocker Ozzy Osbourne in intensive care after quad bike crash
* Ozzy Osbourne can't walk or talk yet

UPDATE: Ozzy is apparently doing better, according to this news story about him.

UPDATE in Jan 2005: When I was moving the news system to this new format, I discovered all these news links were dead, so I didn't bother to put the links back up again.

Ozzy Voted Most Bizarre

The Major League Baseball site recently ran their best of 2003 awards. Visitors to the site voted on them, and Ozzy Osbourne was voted the winner in the "Most bizarre moment" for his rendition of "Take me out to the Ballgame" in Chicago this past summer. Normally I wouldn't report on something like this, but I found the entire escapade to be really amusing. :) Here's a link with details.

New Dario Mollo Album

Who's that? Well, Dario Mollo is a guitarist who has worked on a couple of discs over the last few years with Tony Martin - these are the "Cage" projects. They've been quote good, and I just discovered over the weekend that he's finishing up a new album that ties his connection with Sabbath a bit tighther. This new disc has Glenn Hughes (Seventh Star) as lead vocalist. This should be great to hear when it's released. I don't have any concrete info on it's release date; Dario told me "I'm not sure about the release date..". He did tell me that it would be the second "Voodoo Hill" album.

Once I get more info, I'll pass it on, Dario has said he'll pass me some sound clips for use, too.
