**I wonder if Suicide Solution is still making kids kill themselves. Or has Manson taken over that duty now? **

Probably.

The guy’s voice is so awful that a guy would commit suicide after 30 seconds of hearing the halls spokesman with strep throat scream.
Here is a happy elf

I was lucky enough to see Ozzy on the 1983 tour with Motley Crue before he kicked the Crue off his tour. I don’t remember for certain, but I believe it was the same tour that he bit the head off the bat & pissed on The Alamo. God, he was one crazy fucker.

I saw his Behind the Music. He snorted a line of ants.

Ahem.

Ozzy snorted a LINE OF FREAKIN’ ANTS!

[Skillet38]

yes, but they were ants that had been fed LSD laced bread crumbs

there’s a method to his madness

**I caught Ozzy with Randy Rhoads on the first leg of the “Diary of a Madman” tour.

March 2nd 1982- Hirsch Coliseum, Shreveport, LA
Randy died on March 19th

I’ve seen a lot of musicians up close and I’ve been playing guitar since the late '70s. Watching Randy Rhodes bordered on a religious experience with my 18 year old self. His solos were clean, and stunningly virtuosic, and yet, it “wasn’t” like listening to “Blizzard” and “Diary”, because he had had time to improve/ further personalize his playing.

I found his performance to be so mesmerizing that here, some twenty years later I hardly remember Ozzy so much as Randy. I caught the next tour “Bark at the Moon” ? with Jake E. Lee on guitar and was nonplussed.

I hold Ozzy’s first two releases in great esteem, and, well, the less said about the rest of it the better, as it’s just my opinion.

I know we’ve gone way off on a tangent with this thread, but, thats the way the bat head crumbles

Sorry to continue the hijack but I just have to agree that Randy Rhoads was one of the most talented and intelligent guitarists I’ve ever heard. His early death was truly a loss. I think he would have been one of the all-time greats. I wore those two albums out when I was younger. His solos were like mini compostitions. They were beautifully melodic but also had balls. He had chops to burn and he never sounded cheesy he was amazing.

It is to Ozzy’s great credit that he saw Randy’s talent just minutes into his audition and hired him on the spot before he was even done warming up. Ozzy’s knack for hiring top-notch backing musicians, especially guitarists, is one of strongest reasons for his success and longevity.

God, he was one crazy fucker.

IIRC, it was Geezer Butler who made the following statement about the God of Rock (aka Ozzy).

“He’s the craziest motherfucker I know. . .he hasn’t mellowed with age, either. He’s just more subtle now.”

Heh. Sounds about right!
