Hi Guys
Interesting discussion about Ozzy, I distrust anything happening in Ozzy’s career as being his own decision, I think he’s abdicated any autonomy to his wife. BTW FYI Bernie Torme played on the first few Gillan albums.
Doro was a little bundle of excitement wasn’t she.
Anyways see ya later! Keep up the good work
Adios

Guys, I could not wait for this episode. Ozzy should have moved on from Zakk long ago. First I think Zakk killed BLS by pulling double duty. He burned himself out and the creativity was gone. Just listen to the last couple of BLS albums and Ozzy albums. The proof is in the pudding. These albums did not sell. Ozzy is not capable of thinking for himself anymore so this decision to pull in Gus G has to be those surrounding Ozzy such as Sharon. Ozzy will never duplicate the offerings of Blizzard or Diary.
By the way do you guys have 125×125 or 468×60 banners? I’d love to promote your site and program on my website Noitworld. Horns Up My Metal Brothers. Anxiously awaiting the new Megadeth End Game Release

I love Zakk and want him to also move on as it just isn’t working. The album with “Dreamer” (they have been so bad I can’t remember the record name) I remember Zakk was mad that Ozzy went outside the band for songs. It didn’t work. Ozzy has never been in charge. Just read “off the rails” and you will see Sharon has always been in charge. And while i think she made him rich and alive LOL, she needs to step back and let the music be made by the musicians. But just as Randy was a shot in the arm, a new guitar player may help.

Todd, I could put something together for you in both sizes. I’ll try to get it to you this weekend for sure. Cool? And thanks for the honest comments. We really appreciate your support and hope you keep on digging the show.
HORNS UP!

Genghis,
Sounds great. I’ll anxiously await your stuff. I digg the show bro and want everyone that is a fan of metal to know about you guys. I love the approach and the interviews. The way you interview these folks is very entertaining and you can tell that you are a true fan and not some douche just asking questions. I can’t wait for the next episode. By the way have you heard the new Megadeth streaming on their myspace page? Killer. It rocks and in my opinion blows away Death Magnetic. The two albums really are not comparable because End Game is in on an entirely different level of musicianship. Horns up brother and have a great weekend.
