A project that I’ve been working on for awhile now has been completed. Posted today is a major update to my tourdates section. With the help of Robert Dwyer of sabbathlive.com – I’ve updated an enhanced all of the tour date pages I have from 1970-1995. Robert’s site is probably the best source of live […]

I’d been getting several emails over the last month or so telling me that Black Sabbath will be headlining Ozzfest 2003. I had contacted both Sharon’s office, as well as Blue Flame (Tony Iommi’s management company), and they both denied Sabbath was on Ozzfest. Yesterday, the formal announcement came – Sabbath isn’t playing Ozzfest. What’s […]

Unfortunately, the Black & Blue DVD that was to be issued last year is no longer going to be released. When I contacted the company a few days ago after hearing rumours that it had been "withdrawn", they replied with this statement: As it stands I would say it is cancelled – whether this is […]

Short message – today is Tony Iommi’s birthday – he’s 55 today. :)

I’ve gotten a few emails about this, so I figured I’d better get it online (actually, I’ve known for a few weeks, but I haven’t had the time to update the site – too busy at work). Anyway, 20 years ago or so when I was in high school, I worked at a video store, […]

Today seems to be the day for good Sabbath related articles to read online. We have three of them. First off, let’s lead with a great news article about Bill Ward done by the St. Petersburg Times website entitled "Bill Ward: Ozzy he’s not". It talks about Bill’s internet release of Straws, his views on […]

It appears that Tony Martin’s long out of print 1992 solo album "Back Where I Belong" is now available again. I was informed of this today, and checked it out – it appears that it’s been reissued under a new label (Phantom – the old one was Polydor). You can order it with this link. […]

I just got word that Bill Ward has agreed to a date for a new edition of his semi-regular radio show on radio station WPMD from Cerritos College in Cerritos, CA. The date he’ll be doing it is February 15th. Once I get more info, like the time of the show, I’ll report back. UPDATE: […]

I was sent this quick news blurb in the last couple of days – I’m attempting to verify whether it’s true or not. If it is true, it certainly could be very interesting… Rhino Records is planning on releasing a box set spanning Ronnie James Dio’s entire career from ELF, Rainbow, Black Sabbath, and his […]

No, I haven’t discontinued the mailing list. I’ve just been real busy putting together my work after the holidays and am just now catching up. I should have a new issue out in the next couple of days.
