My first news story of the year is one that talks about a not fun subject at all.  Tony Iommi’s cancer. While I’ve been seeing a lot of posts and requests (and even DEMANDS, if you can believe that) for Tony to record, tour, basically do the same thing as he’s always done..   This […]

Tony’s Book in Paperback

A year ago (give or take) Tony Iommi’s autobiography came out.  I wrote about it a bunch, even had a reporter on side for one of the US Book signings (seems funny to say I have a reporter – haha).  You can read all of that here.   As with most books, some time down […]
