Ozzy died…

[CoreyW]

This is strangely similar to the end for The Ultimate Warrior.

Long live Ozzy!

When i was in the military, my buddy had "OZZY" tattooed on his fingers. Years after he got the tattoo, he tried to scrape it off wirh a brick. Him and I obviously became great friends, lol.

That Ozzfest tour? Man what a great lineup.

That was in the fall of ‘99; Drain STH & Godsmack were openers for that show.

I did get to see Sabbath again at Ozzfest ‘01. Then I caught Ozzy with Zakk, Borden & Rob at Ozzfest ‘02. I could have the two years of those mixed up, that’s been a while, and those long shows in the summer heat were brutal.

Glad he got one last one in..... Sad day for sure. Gave us Randy and Jake.

RIP Ozzy. Gotta hand it to the guy, 76 years is a long stretch for anybody who did that many drugs.

Glad to see he was able to keep performing music right up until the end though.

He and sharon shouldn't have let Jake get away.

A couple more albums with him would have been better than what we got.

Such a sad day. So much great music through the years. RIP Oz!

Cranking it up, playing Over the Mountain and drinking a beer in honor of Ozz.

Didn't you start your own Ozzy thread?

Only cover my old boogie woogie hardcore band ever did. Was a huge huge influence on me from the very earliest of my playing days. This is not a note for note rendition; but HUGE love intended.

Killer man..

I generally liked Jake's stuff more than Zakk, but some tracks like this one sound like both Ozzy and Zakk were having a lot of fun.

One of my fav Ozzy songs is off that record. Tattooed Dancer. It's got the perfect blend of Ozzy being Ozzy, Randy type riffs and that gnarly snarl and pinch harmonics Zakk has. I could listen to this song 10 times in a row and be pumped up the whole time.

 

[GreatRedDragon]

Gutted. Been holding it in all day at work.

First artist I got into was Oz. First show was Oz. Saw him five times total. For a guy who "couldn't sing" he sure sang a shitload of great songs.

 

[Fusionbear]

He was an icon. He also wasn't adverse to stealing writing credits from people and screwing them out of millions in royalties.

This is a sad truth.... In spite of his great legacy, there were very visible flaws in his character...

 

[romanianreaper]

When i left work today, I had Ozzy's Boneyard on and was tearing up hearing Jose Mangon, the D.J. trying to hold it together. He kept breaking down and callers had some great stories about Ozzy.

There are some musicians that ARE hard rock. They live it and are the core. Lemmy, EVH, Ozzy, Angus, etc. Rock royalty.

My final thoughts on this news today: For some reason, I always imagined Ozzy would never die. He just seems like one of those Keith Richards people that live on and on. It hasn't quite hit me yet, but it will over the next several months.
