Wanted to take a moment and say congrats to Tony Iommi for getting back up on stage tonight at the O2 in Birmingham. As I have a relative who went through the same cancer treatment he did for the same thing, I know what that does to you. Kudos to him for getting back […]

Bill Ward just issued a lengthy statement on his situation with Black Sabbath. The short of it is that he’s not playing the three announced live dates. No mention was made about the new album, but if he’s not playing any of the live dates, I can’t imagine he’s working with them on the […]
