BLACK SABBATH TO HEADLINE OZZFEST 2001

I received this email from Sharon Osbourne’s office today about Ozzfest 2001. Check it out. :)

There’s no need for hype, hoopla, and puffery. The Ozzfest 2001 will showcase the heaviest line-up yet. The Main Stage bill is confirmed.

BLACK SABBATH
Marilyn Manson
Slipknot
Papa Roach
Linkin Park
Disturbed

Tour dates, venues, second stage line-up, ticket on-sale dates, and other announcements to follow in the coming weeks.

The last time that Ozzfest tried to take Marilyn Manson out on tour, there were a lot of problems with places not wanting the gigs there. Let’s see if that happens again – especially a double bill of "Black Sabbath & Marilyn Manson".

I placed a call to Sharon’s office today, and confirmed – the Black Sabbath that will play will be Tony, Ozzy, Geezer, & Bill. No word on Geoff Nicholls, but I can’t imagine they’d go out without Geoff at this point. :)

More news when I get it.
