zakk Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 I have been an Ozzy fan forever but I have never been able to see him live. At this point, I am apprehensive considering he is older and such. For those of you that have seen him, is he a good live act or not?

SofaKingWhat Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 I saw Ozzy in 2001.He had a sore throat and plodded around the stage... still a great performer.The band were shit hot too.He should probably be thinking of hanging up his boots but that fucking Osbournes show has propelled him into the mainstream media.And I wish sharon would choke to death on her face lift.

zakk Posted November 18, 2006 Author Share Posted November 18, 2006 Yeah the T.V. show made me sour on him a little bit even though it was not his idea. I heard he is coming out with a new album. I guess I might have one more chance to see him. Sharon is bitch and a half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SofaKingWhat Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 I never used to mind Sharon until that shit she pulled with Iron Maiden and also seeing her on The Osbournes.Shes such a controlling, leeching little bitch.But yeah, if you ever the chance to see Ozzy, take it. Since you've been a fan for a long long time, you shouldn't be disappointed even if he doesn't do his best performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zakk Posted November 18, 2006 Author Share Posted November 18, 2006 Hopefully I will get a chance. Wylde is good guitarrist. I would like to see him as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irs Better Catcher in the Twat Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 seen ozzfest in nj 2001-2003, ozzy was horrible, acted likie a moron the whole time, every time. his favorite thing to do was grab a hose and spray everyone in the crowd with water! LAME I remember leaving early during his set on a few occasions, some people just dont know when to call it quits, sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zakk Posted November 18, 2006 Author Share Posted November 18, 2006 That is exactly what I am afraid of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Spade Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 I seen him in the summer of 2003 (solo not Ozzfest). He still has a strong voice and the band is always great (esp. Zakk Wylde). I would agree that the Ozzman is slowing down a bit in his declining years, but he still has his voice even if he can't really run around anymore.As for as his stage presence, for the most part he just sprayed the crowd with water and jumped up and down in one spot.In my opinion though, since the music still sounds good and since Ozzy is still a great singer, I would recommend seeing him live while you still have the chance if you're a fan. rock1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zakk Posted November 18, 2006 Author Share Posted November 18, 2006 Thank You Ace Spade. I realize that he is not what he was; but I do want to see him once. He is a clown now; but at least his band will rock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tat2d1 Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 I've seen him 7 times solo and twice with Sabbath. I always have to go to St.Louis or Chicago, because every time he schedules a show in central Illinois he cancels. He's played 1 out of his last 9 scheduled shows in central Illinois, and i was there, back in 96- he's cancelled on us since then a time or 2.Anyhow, go see him if you get the chance. The man is a legend. Yes, he was better 10 and 20 years ago, but fuck it man, it's OZZY! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Sephiroth- Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Saw him with Sabbath a year ago, he was great then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabre Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Supposedly, at the moment his voice is the best it's been in years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rQueen Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 I've seen him live with Black Sabbath on Summer 2005 and he was amazing performer. Such a great experience! You should definatelly see him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerage5 Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Saw him last year with Sabbath and this year solo; both occasions were onese I won't soon forget. This year his voice sounded better than it has since the early 80's.I have no respect for Sharon or Zakk Wylde after the Iron Maiden incedent, however.

moreblack Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 I agree, as a live performer he's finished. He's got no voice left, no moves left. He's done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raw Power Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I've seen Ozzy live. Not just Ozzy, I've seen him with Black Sabbath. I can only say one thing to those who says Ozzy's no good anymore: Screw You! I saw him last summer, and damnit he was good! Best time of my life. I've seen Mötley, Judas Priest, and other bands and nothing was as good as Black Sabbath. Ozzy has to take his credit for that!I hope you'll get the chance to see him.

moreblack Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 He probably had a rare good night. But both times I've seen him, he was absolute shite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzy has to take his credit for that!I hope you'll get the chance to see him.well i'm sure he's good on ocassion if he takes care of himself, but everytime i've seen him since the no more tours tour for ozzmosis (a lot), it was obvious that iommi, zakk, and even joe holmes were carrying the show.i saw them (sabbath) with pantera not too long before pantera broke up, ozzy totally lost his voice, the audience sang damn near every song alone.i still fucking love the guy, though. and i plan to see him live again anyway.

Zint Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Saw at Ozzfest a few years back with the Sabbath reunion...that was coolSaw him a couple of summer's ago headlining Ozzfest and he was total crap.The strong feeling that Ozzfest is a Sharon osbourne cash grab intensified and I left half way through Ozzy's set.utter garbage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
