no Tool? this s4itty a$$ list is rigged, totally inaccurate, Sorry but Ozzys show was just good for nastalgic reasons Ozzy lost his place in like 3 different songs and his voice cracked like a 12 year old going through puberty several times during the show in indianapolis. I have all the respect in the world for ozzy please believe me... but this list is on crack, no Rush? no Tool?, that s4it was tight like nothing I've ever seen & Im 34& Ive seen it all...never J.Timberlake though thankfully. Mighty Metts and brats have sucked since Cliff Burton passed (rip) I think this list is insulting to musicians and music lovers as a whole & it should be floating in a sewer.
