It's big. It's bad. And it's back for more. Got a problem with that?
Ozzfest — the king of festivals — triumphantly returns this summer to celebrate its hard-earned 10th anniversary with the staggering line-up of BLACK SABBATH, IRON MAIDEN, ROB ZOMBIE, KILLSWITCH ENGAGE, SHADOWS FALL and BLACK LABEL SOCIETY. The summer's premier concert festival — which has propelled many of today’s rock bands to superstardom while paying close attention to its discerning fans — will roll out July 15 in Boston and visit 26 cities by the time it reaches West Palm Beach on September 4. The Hot Topic Second Stage will be headlined by ZOMBIE and feature a preview of rock's rising stars, including AS I LAY DYING, MASTODON, THE HAUNTED, IN FLAMES, ARCH ENEMY, THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, BURY YOUR DEAD, SOILWORK, TRIVIUM, IT DIES TODAY, A DOZEN FURIES and more.
"I'm most proud of the success of Ozzfest," says founder Sharon Osbourne. "Everyone said it would never happen and 10 years later we are still in business." In fact, 125 bands, 238 shows and over 4 million fans later, the all-day extravaganza of music and deranged merriment is roaring louder than ever. History in the making, 2005 marks the first time metal legends BLACK SABBATH and IRON MAIDEN have toured together and also represents IRON MAIDEN's first Ozzfest appearance.
IRON MAIDEN singer Bruce Dickinson said, "This summer's MAIDEN touring is based on the recent 'Early Days' DVD and all the songs we do at Ozzfest will be from our first four albums — 'Iron Maiden', 'Killers', 'Number of the Beast' and 'Piece of Mind'. We will be bringing over our full European show, naturally including as special guest Eddie in various appropriate guises!! The stage sets, production and backdrops will recreate aspects of the shows on the tours around those albums — only bigger… much bigger!!! We don’t know if anyone has done anything like this before but we think it’s something the fans will really appreciate both in the choice of songs and in the production values."

As for Anthrax - if you look on Ozzfest.com, there is a blank slot for the 3rd slot on the mainstage. My guess is that this is where Anthrax belongs, but it may be held up by reunion related negotiations that are quite common. Pure speculation, but that's what I'd put my money on. I do hope Anthrax play Ozzfest though, regardless of who's singing.
But overall, I'm very impressed with that lineup. Seems they've got some real solid bands all around, and didn't just follow the latest trend (still metalcore).
Ive been sayin that ozzfest 2004 is going to go down as one of the best metal tours EVER!!! this years cant hold a candle to last years but its still goign to be a good one....Mastodon, In Flames, As I lay Dying, The Black Dahlia Murder, TRIVIUM (the best metal band of 2005), bury your dead, shadows fall, IRON F-CKIN MAIDEN...i mean, its going to be a good concert. Cant wait to see who the last minute bands are....Anthrax would be badass...and i could have sworn i heard mudvayne was going to do the 2nd stage, what happend to that?
Man, first Judas Priest...now Iron Maiden. It seems ozzfest has finally started to get good. And it's awesome to see some Europian bands on the bill (Arch Enemy, In Flames). I dare say this ozzfest is just as good as last years. I don't know though...the presence of Rob Zombie disturbs me a bit. But hey, no festival lineup has been perfect.
Line up looks pretty cool but I was really hopeing that System of a Down would be put on this years Ozzfest. I was also hopeing that Lamb of God would get luck and get to come back again but they are doing their other tours this summer (CANT WAIT TO SEE THEM 4/20 HELL YA). I cant stand Rob Zombie so thats kinda dissapointing. Iron Maiden will be amazing and that is one of the coolest things ever. WHERE IS DENVER ON THAT LIST DAMIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
where is iced earth, godsmack, disturbed, opeth, kreator, i dont want to f*** see lamb of god or rob zombie or anthrax and they suck a$$ i want my money to be worth and arch enemy and in flames should be headlining the second stage and to be honest the bands that there on 2 stage they suck a$$ you have rob zombie and killswitch my a$$ headlinging thats not f***ing right they both suck balls peace out you punk b****es..........................................
f*** what are all these people talking about Arch Enemy and In Flames headlining Ozzfest.They're good but they don't deserve to play the main stage yet!!!!!! As for the people asking for Disturbed and Godsmack , Do you even listen to any real Metal . BLACK SABBATH and IRON MAIDEN hell yeah and Anthrax woul be a great addition.
the show will be awsome becuase IRON MAIDEN is coming, now that is real metal, not any of this nu-metal sh*t like arch enemy or bury your dead or any of that crap. screw nu-metal, thanks to that crap, metal has turned too s**t. and by the way Lamb of god sucks crap, when will you losers ever listen to real metal like maiden or dio. DEATH-METAL SUCKS!!!!
O My F@ckin god all of my favorite band are in ozzfest i hope the f@ckin kick a$$ i will see you Rob Zombie,Killswitchengade,Shadowsfall at ozzfest and im gonin to see Shadows Fall March 31 here in Corpus Christi at Concret Amphitheater with Lamb of God and Slipknot man there gonna f*ckin kick ass.
Thank f***ing GOD (or SATAN) for OZZFEST!!! The main stage line-up is f***ing sick as HELL. SABBATH and MAIDEN in the same night? HOLY. f***. I pray that Anthrax's presence is not a rumor, we all need some ANTHRAX (regardless of their choice of singer, Joey or John). Thank you, Ozzy and Sharon, for making my metal dreams become realities over these last few years. Keep rockin' loud and hard, all you crazy f***ERS!!!!! R.I.P., DIMEBAG. YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN.
ok for any of you f***s who say all these different bands suck...doesnt matter who sucks or who doesnt, if you dont like it, stay the f*** away, i bet most of you who are putting down half these bands, are the p***y garage bands that dont have a chance and dream of what you wont be..lamb of god for example..hardcore or metal...either way you look at it, it all revolves around the same place...we are all metal heads, and some of us may listen to metalcore like killswitch or others, but f*** people..ozzfest is a time to celebrate the recognition of metal and show out to all metalheads nationwide that metal is still alive and is still kicking ass....so respect the ones who may not sound the best compares to others, it all revolves around the same world my friends....
Death Metal is the best metal out there why isn't Cannibal Corpse, Dark Funeral, or Mortician ever going to be in the line up? I'll tell you why, because their so f***ing loud and heavy it will blow all the other bands coming out of the water don't ever talk sh** about Death Metal. And yeah Dimmu Borgir would be nice if you go to their home site they say they are in the line up but I don't know. And sh** Come to DENVER you all know we got the best moshes out there!!!!!
are you kidding me? Yes of course metallica is a very talented OLD SCHOOL metal band. Thier albums like kill 'em all, ride the lightining, and such are great heavy albums. But thier new sh** dropped and plus that sh** with Lars, sorry bro but metallica isnt ozzfest matierial.
man what an awsome line up, black sabbath, black label society, and of course IRON MAIDEN!!! all these people who say that sucks, or all that music sucks, should grow up and start to respect the music. These guys devote thier lives to bring you music to enjoy and you all ought to respect that.
Hey poop I already f***ed your mom b****, your the fa**ot, learn 2 spell go listen to your f***ing Britney Spears If I ever see you in a mosh I will mummify you in barbed wire mother f***er. you probrably listen to that hip-hop bullsh** too, death metal is not numetal dumbass what the f*** do you think Slayer started dipsh**
ok i may be arrogant, but i know what metal is, and i this is true about slayer (thanks lucidspu) though. Look we all listen to out own type of metal, but for anyone like poop who has no clue what the f*** he is talking about shouldnt be here talking about metal. But in conclusion to you all...god bless metal
hey shaun you f*cked up d***head your probably one of those goth faggets who think slipknot and all the nu-metal garbage is music. you pathetic Fuc* , your such a fagget, your picking up chicks on frikin metal underground comment lists. Half of these chicks ar efrikkin dogs anyway, you dork. and acttually dont listen to fU**in hip hop, i listen to real metal such as IRONMAIDEN. youll mumiffy me in barbed wire, hahaha you stupid fag.
alright poop, first of all im not the one who said that i would mummify you in barbed wire at all. And im not picking up chicks, i asked maybe sometime if they were interested in just talking, thats not picking up. And you over here callin me fag and sh** like its really offending me, and real metal is maiden, you're right about that, and i listen to the same sh** you do. Lamb of god, maiden, sabbath, anthrax, nothingface, dry kill logic, hell i even listen to hatebreed man. I respect all kinds of heavy music except a few. Maybe you should start to appreciate music more instead of insulting it and insulting the ones that know what the f*** they are talking about. And when you want to insult someone, make sure you know what you're talking about before you go and run your mouth off. And metalheads like me dont like hardcore scene kids or goth kids very much. But like i said, i know how to appreciate and repsect all heavy music, from cradle of filth to mastodon. And you're comin on here responding to everything i say, its a message board, thats what im using it for, not to be a silly a$$ highschooler like you that goes around calling random people fags and sh**. Just learn to appreciate sh**, im not out to offend anyone, just thought i would throw in my opinion like the rest of these people that are in here. So if you have sh** to say to me, then run your mouth off to everyone else on here. So dont think im being a d*** about sh**, im not, just read and understand what people say. peace all....
ummmm....................hi.......Poop. I thought you should know, I am not a dog by any means, I do not listen to hip hop, and Shawn isn't picking anybody up he just wants to talk to some metal chicks.
As for how "metal" I am, why don't you go back and read my posts. My favorite band was and is still Pantera and ranking right up there in my number one slot is Maiden. I have probably been to more shows, kicked azz in more mosh pits, and have met more bands than you ever have. But, it's not all about who's this and who's that. Damn man, show some respect. I hate nu metal and all that crap but you will never see me calling anybody f#gs or pu55y in my posts.
brad...whatever, talk all you want...and poop...yo man its cool, like i was saying im not out for anyone, just saying what i know and all that....but for anyone and everyone else thats still talkin sh**, whatever, i really dont care, its fine with me, not like you are really offending my i.q. on things, but brad, as long as ur still down with metal im cool with you..peace all
What's the hold deal about this f***ing Ozzfest, Its just a bounch of alternative music in one day, The f***ing U.S. needs f***ing BLACK METAL fest. Some Akercocke, Funeral Mist, Enslaved, 1349 eternal hails to Black metal and get ready everyone the dark winds and enlighten spawns of the oceans is awakening soon.
redmist does have some point. i do like mainstream black metal, but most of it is meant to stay underground. Besides, most of the black metal bands that exist are srictly studio, especially the greats. Darkthrone, Mayhem, Gorgoroth, just to name a few. Not to mention Burzum. Im still going. i dont give a fu<k. Black metal fest would FU<KING ROCK though.
WELL US OZZFEST JUNKIES HERE IN ARIZONA ARE HAPPY THAT THEY ARE COMEING TOO ARIZONA THIS YEAR.. WE MISSED OUT ON LAST YEARS.. IRON MAIDEN, ROB AND BLACK SABBATH.. f***IN AWESOME.. AND WHATS ALL THIS TALK ABOUT HOW THEY SHOULD ADD BLACK METAL BANDS AND sh** ON THE TOUR.. IF YOU DONT LIKE WHAT BANDS ARE THERE... THEN DONT GO.. IM TIRED ABOUT EVERYONE STRESSING ABOUT THIS WHOLE MAIN STREAM sh**.. MUSIC IS MADE FOR YOU TOO ENJOY.. NOT TOO HATE BECAUSE THEY ARE FAMOUS OR WHATEVER THE f***.. GET OVER YOURSELF..
Dont feel bad when they dont come to your city, they havent been to atlanta in a couple of years, so i have to drive out of state every year to f***ing see it.....anyways, who is this assclown on here talkin bout satan and sh**? If ur talkin like that, then i have no respect for you at all, just might as well quit talkin in here. Oh yeah, whats up poop?
first off this kicks a$$ goin to the wi this yr. but come y cant u guys respect others taste in metal so what if u dont like what some one else does f***ing let them have there opinion i think thats what metal is truly about having your own choice and not sh**ing on others because its different than yours get a f***in life and learn u dont need to c*** others off to feel superior rock on f***ers
Lol, I love metal forums - so much hate.
Where the hell is the Death Metal?? If I could go (which I can't) I'd like to see some mutherf***** Nile, Morbid Angel, Cryptopsy, Necrophagist - That would be awesome. Bring back 93' era Roadrunner I say, an Atheist reunion or something.
Hell, black metal too! America has some awesome Black Metal bands like Xasthur, Crebain, Draugar and Leviathan - I guess they don't get much exposure anyway. Have fun watching Mastodon and Iron Madien you lucky c*nts :)
Has anybody heard who might be in the 3rd main stage spot? I'm in Chicago, and on the radio they said that Velvet Revolver might take over for Iron Maiden when they drop off the last 7 or 8 dates. It would be cool to see Slayer (again) or Sevendust. Both are going to be putting out new albums soon. I don't really care to see V.R., and I don't think they are the kind of band that would take the third slot.
time for some girl talk
i have to admit I AM A CHEERLEADER , but hey i am not one of those prissy little shyts OK!! i love hard core metal just like all of u .... i effin live in CANADA and i am going ..... so if ozzfest is not coming to ur state BOOHOO, drive 4 a while!!
that is all i gotta say CIAO
I went to last years ozzfest with SLAYER and LAMB OF GOD and that was so f***in awesome, but this years line up is really pethetic for a 10th year aniversary. I mean MAIDEN and SABBATH should be awesome(SABBATH was kick a$$ last year also) but thats all really worth seeing. I think the worst band is BLS, havent they been on ozzfest like 5 times.....they´re getting really gay.
Satan_Inside
I heard that on 94.7 the other night (late). They said Vel Rev would jump in for those last 7 shows. They said nothing of the 3rd main stage spot. Just found out God Forbid, Caliban, It Dies Today,and Full Blown Chaos are playing at the Clearwater in Dundee on Monday for like $12
I agree that there should be more death metal, but In Flames, Mastodon, and Soilwork are enough for me. The Jester Race is one of the best albums ever so I better get to at least here Moonshield. COB needs to be there though. I heard a rumor once that Megadeth was going to be there (has anyone else heard this) If they were is would TOTALLY rock. Up the IRONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What are you blokes in the Mid West b*tch'en about, just get out on the interstate and catch a ride with a big hariy trucker and problem solved. F**K mate, I along with all my heading bang'en lunatics in this hemisphere are dying down here. Not that I'm complaining about Kylie Minogues peach-shaped arse parading all over the TV it's just that I got a taste of Ozzfest at Donnington (UK) and I've become an addict. I need my fix. How about just considering bringing that tour Down Under.......there's a sh*t load of room down here; f**k there's a park just up the road. Also I've been working on a way of mixing up about 50000 litres of 6% Oz Special Circumstance Beer (OSCB). I've almost got it working, I've just have to tap into the electrical power station somehow. but I'll get that sorted as I have a mate on the inside. Oh and the beer is FREE. Ozzy are you reading this? Wait you're on the wagon. Zakk?? Free p*ss, you can't beat that.
On a serious note, I know what you're thinking, "there's just not enough population in Australia to support such a concernt". The truth is all these brain washed teenages obsessed with this "Australian Idol" bullsh*t are actually demonic by nature......they just haven't been shown the light, or the dark. All I'll say is that there are alot of devoted heavy metal fans in this part of the world. Let me provide you with an example......in 2003 I was prepared to travel to Donnington England to catch Iron Maiden and Metallica. That's $2000AUS not including the concert ticket. If I can travel across the world I'm sure people would travel across a couple of state borders or from Asia to catch the spectacle. I eagerly await your answer. P.S Shrimps suck! I'll throw a steak on the BBQ.
P.S.S Fosters beer sucks a dead dingos donger too.
catch you all later.......whoa here's Kylie's arse again...........man!
joe
dude ne one that wants to go ozzfest is not truely worthy if they want freakin system of a down to b there because all they would play is their crappy music that is getting more and more emo as they go.. if they played their really REALLY old stuff then... they might b able to play on the second stage... but that would be a stretch too
I used to be a huge manson fan back during "portrait of an american faimly" days. Even Antichrist was good. I lost all respect when it came "cool" to be a Manson fan. all these little 13 year olds running around with the black lipstick and fishnet stockings. I still listen but he is not a good Ozzfest fit. I saw him at Ozzfest 2 years back and looking around, it didn't seem like anybody cared or was watching for that matter.
As for System of a Down..........please don't play Ozzfest. I remember back when they first played there like 5 or 7 years ago, I can't remember but it wasn't that great.
What the hell? We were all set to buy up tickets and go to the Ozzfest in St. Louis this year, and... NO St. Louis? Do they not realize that a lot of us aren't going to drive all the way to Chicago just to see the show? They'll be missing out on quite a bit of profit there this year... As a Missouri resident (and someone who was eager to see her first Ozzfest show) I have to say bluntly that - this blows the big one.
Hey, f*** you, "ragnarok". You don't know me or the situation I'm in, and if you did, you'd know that I have a right to be p***ed if I so deem. So shut your blow hole and go jerk off. Maybe you won't be so uptight if you do. Leave us others alone who wish to express how we want a piece of Ozzfest, hoping that they might decide to play in our cities, too, just so we can enjoy what everyone else is enjoying.
Hey 'UNEARTH - my brother's messing around up there in Vancouver at the moment; I think he had a crack at that bus shelter loaded with cash.
Mate you need to bend Sharon over the bonnet of a 57 Chev and teach her a lesson she's likely ASK Ozzy to re-perform. I'd have a crack but you're closer. If you're anywhere close to the border, steal a V W Combi from one the those tree hungin hippy f**ks with a bed in the back and head down with LEANNE the cheerleader.:-) Oh, don't forget to take a few slabs of gold stuff . If I can get over to LA with work this year.........I'll have few with ya.
Cynic, you out there mate...........start building a canoe pal cause when I get my band in the first ever metal charts I'll start my own AusFest and Sharon can stick it up Jacks arse. It'll be awesome I'll even set up a re-match between Geezer Butler (Sabbath) and Malcolm Young. In case you don't know ........during a Sabbath tour where ACDC was supporting, Butler pulled a knife on Malcolm, and Mal being the 'no sh*t' bloke he is.....he knocked the cu*t out. Hehehehe what a legend. I've heard of Alarum but haven't heard any of their sh*t yet? Are they a Melbourne ensemble? Are you into GnR? Mate, I saw one of the best GnR cover band going around.......if you're into them and ever get a chance to catch "Appetite for Destruction" do youself and favour and see them.
Metal is the answer? F**k'en oath is it mate. Hey get a some cash together, pull an Aussie bird on holiday and head down under. Melbourne is saturated with local metal. And f*** me (whopps should I have "*" that :-) Canberra held the first ever National Heavy Metal Music awards. Have you heard anything so riteous?! Me neither. Man, if only I learnt how to build a time machine in my degree I'd head back to the 80's. Born too late!!!
Poop and Shaun, keep up the good works lads. Thanks for the entertainment .
LEANNE The Cheerleader.....'like, if you're like looking for traveling buddy to Ozzfest :-)...... like see Unearth. Have fun.:-)
I'm outta here........it's beer time.
april 6th ....... glendale arena ...... cant wait to see f***ing lamb of god. anyway, i think it sucks that ozzfest doesnt hit the same cities every year cuz phoenix gets skipped every other year, literally, we get ozzfest every other year and it f***ing sucks. Anybody go to Jagermeister Tour last year w/ Slipknot and Fear Factory? Alterbridge (Creed) is playing this year, what the f*** happened to that tour?
Stop b****ing that aint going to your city, chico. We dont get Ozzfest at all in Puerto Rico. U know what I''m gonna do I'm going to fly to Boston and see it..Don't have cash get a job. Work for it..When you really want something nothing can't stop u..Especially something like Maiden and Black Sabbath in the same stage..Awesome.
Hell yea this ozzfest is going to be awsome as hell I love iron maiden their a classic and Zombie he's always been awsome as hell Im also looking forward to Shadows fall and black sabbath of course cant say Ive even heard of or care for the "newer bands" like as I lay dying they suck d*ck otherwise Im ready for it!!
Sorry to hear Anthrax will not be in the line-up......Maybe they will headline in in some other great shows
soon. Damn! If all the bands that really Rip it up played at Ozzfest...The show could last a week..WTF?
Meanwhile we'll just "Keep it in the family"...................Laterz
Slipknot can kiss my ass. what the fu<k is that last album? Those bands are what i like to call a gateway for teens who dont really know what metal is. Try listening to some real metal. Lamb of god is metal, but not slipknot. Try out Darkthrone, EMPEROR, or Mayhem. or even some viking metal like Amon Amarth. Once turntables get involved, thats not metal anymore.
yo what ozzfest needs is a steller lineup filled with CoB, cradle of filth, Dimmu borgir(So p***ed off I missed them alst year), Graveworm, Amon Amarth and Lamb of god. Whoever says Death metal is good is a f***in dumbass though because alls death metal is is raping a bass and sh**ty a$$ drumming with lots of snare. They really have no talent and all the songs bassically sound the same. They have a couple good ppl on the linup this year like Arch enemy(whoever says arch enemy is nu-metal is a f***in dumbass and needs to rethink his statements). All in all I think they should drop the 80's acts like Miaden and make way for fresh music. Maiden doesnt have much talent anyways and they have the biggist fa**ot in music lol. But all in all they need bands like dimmu borgir who have the intensity to draw a wicked crowd
Whoever says Death metal is good is a f***in dumbass though because alls death metal is is raping a bass and sh**ty a$$ drumming with lots of snare.
Dont you mean nu metal? if not then that is a terrible and wrong description of death metal. And Amon Amarth f***ing rule!
if any of you f***ers want to cry about who and where they are going .. it should be us south floridians, 2004 ozzfest- best lineup ever... and we get f***ed out of it alltogether by hurricane francis and with it being the last date on the tour.. was not rescheduled
Weirdo.Ozzy probably thinks "The Wizard of Oz" is a documentary, he's not going to Kansas. Look, go to your local university campus and 'borrow' a solar powered car from the Mechanical Engineering department and drive. Steal the one with the sticker on it that reads "built for tight arses".
Why can't you blokes just collect your mates and make a weekend of it in a city you haven't been to before. Turn it into a bloody adventure. f*** me I'd travel 2000miles across to Perth (West coast of Oz) if it was staged there. You guys have it way too easy......you have this fantastic festival every year!! EVERY DAMN YEAR! You're taking it for granted.....where will you go when this traveling show draws it's final curtain?
what the hell is wrong with all you p***y-ass pieces of f***ing sh**?!?! Lamb of God? Mudvayne? what the f***? all you morons need to get your nu-metal heads outa your stupid f***ing asses...MAIDEN IS THE f***IN sh**!!!!! THEY BLOW ALL THAT p***y a$$ NU-METAL sh** AWAY LIKE A f***ING DOUBLE BARREL TWELVE-GAUGE!!!!!
by the way, jackson briggs, YOU are the biggest fa**ot in metal (if you can even call yourself a fan, b****) every single member of Iron Maiden has more talent in their f***ing PINKY FINGER than you have in your ENTIRE f***ING BODY!!!! mother f***ing peices of sh** like you need to burn...f*** YOU ALL!!!! MAIDEN FOREVER!!!!!!!!!! LONG LIVE REAL METAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As for cities gettin screwed over, there is no Atlanta, Miami, or Tampa dates either. In their prime, bands like maiden, dio, ac/dc, ozzy etc. set the standard for live shows. If not for them, most heavier bands today would not even exist. SO ANYONE not giving these guys their dues now are not "real" metalheads. Show respect.....please...they deserve it, if you don't like them then don't go!!
Yo I may not know what im really talkin about al the time, but I do know that all this bullsh** name callin is not METAL! You all are such Pusssies. Who cares if some one doesn't like Death Metal, and who cares if some one likes nu-metal its all some ones stupid opinion even if is a gay one. But about ozz fest, was lookin foward to sein Maiden till I found out that they wernt comin to Tennessee, now I'm p***ed. I wasalso wanting to see Rob Zombie because he kicks ass. But hes on the second stage and that sucks. Plus now I'm hearing that Velvet Rvolver will be there to intrudce Black Sabbath. That sucks my balls. I went to ozzfest 2004 and Black Sabath did kinda suck, but don't get me wrong I love their songs, but the performance was short, and kinda boring. I want to say that the mystery band should be PRIMUS!!!!!!! If you dont know who that is look them up on PRIMUSLIVE.com. That would kick ass. And I read somewhere up there that METALLICA isnt ozzfest material. B/S they kick ass. if they came they would take the show. They would knock all these new bands out of the water. But yeah Primus needs to be there, I want to see them before they split again. And Im p***ed at Maiden those Losers thay rock but they will go back to Europe. Well I respect every one on here and there beliefs in metal Later.
Being a fan of G-N-R from way back when, also a HUGE fan of STP, I like Velvet Revolver but not as much as I like the 2 individual bands. Does this make sense, the way I worded it? Scott Weiland is one of the best front men, period. And I love Slash, he kicks ass. I would LOVE to see Rob Zombie, I am also a big fan. Sabbath and Maiden too... SOAD would have been an excellent addition to the bill....

f*** yeah
