Did some checking, and I now have online what I believe to be the official list of tour dates. Check it out.
MORE ON OZZFEST ’99
Here’s some stuff that I’ve found out over the last week about the Ozzfest tour. Yes, Black Sabbath (Ozzy/Tony/Geezer/Bill) are playing Ozzfest ’99. Yes, Geoff Nicholls will be there to play keyboards/back up Ozzy again. Yes, the dates appear to be official. Yes, Judas Priest had to pull out due to recording issues (DAMMIT!) Yes, […]
REUNION TOUR
Well, the "Reunion" tour is done for now. The last word I got appears to still stand, which is these dates will be rescheduled at some point (Denver, Salt Lake City, Peoria, & Ames). As far as I can tell, nothing else will be rescheduled, which is backed by the bomb of Email I got […]
BLACK SABBATH TO DO OZZFEST ’99
Well, I still haven’t gotten word from band management, but I did get two pieces of information (one being a phone call from a very good source) saying that Black Sabbath will be doing Ozzfest ’99. No word whether or not they’ll headline, but I would assume so. From what I can gather, this is […]
RESCHEDULE CLARIFICATION
I was fairly confused yesterday afternoon as to which of the remaining 6 announced dates were to be cancelled, and which were to be rescheduled (the reason for this is that the Sony site said that the remaining 5 dates were to be cancelled, and there were 6). Anyways, the remark on their site was […]
TONY IOMMI ENGAGED?
I was sent this link by two folks in Sweden last night. It’s in Swedish, so I couldn’t immediately translate it, which is why I waited until now to post this. In short, it proports that Tony Iommi is engaged to one of the girls from Drain STH. I have no idea whether or not […]
OZZFEST ’99?
I’m also hearing some rumours about Sabbath and Ozzfest ’99. For now, that’s all they are. Rumours. My gut feeling says that this probably won’t happen. Given all the recent health problems, I’d be surprised if Oz tries to go out on tour at all in the near future.
ENTIRE TOUR POSTPONED
Found this text on the Sony Black Sabbath site.. Once I hear more, I’ll post it. "Under strict orders from Ozzy’s doctors the final five shows of the Black Sabbath 1999 Reunion Tour have been postponed. The rescheduled dates have yet to be confirmed but they will take place sometime in May or June. As […]
PHILLY, PITTSBURGH, & BUFFALO SHOWS POSTPONED
At quite the last second, the Philadelphia show (as well as the Pittsburgh show) has been postponed. The reason is that Ozzy has developed a nodule on his throat. I had posted some stuff here before about dates and whatnot. Please see the title bar on the main page for the latest up to the […]
MEMPHIS SHOW ADDED?
Saw today that the Ticketmaster Web site lists a show for Black Sabbath on February 20th in Memphis, TN. I’m trying to track this down; when I do, I’ll update again. I had heard that there might be a couple of dates added as the band has a few extra days because they’re travelling by […]
