What'd you think of the show, supposedly Ozzy's last performance?

I thought it was pretty epic myself and have huge respect for all the performers, but especially the original Sabbath members still bringing it at their age. It'd would've been nice if the original Blizzard of Ozz band would've been fully represented as well (obviously without Randy Rhoads), but Sharon is still truly evil. :-)

I have the PPV video if you need it... let me know.

I didn't hear if Jake E. Lee was there, speaking of Evil Sharon. Looking
on the web, he was there. Good to know. He was instrumental in Ozzy's post-Rhoads albums and cheated out of writing credits (then summarily
fired) after the last one.

After that, he formed Badlands - their debut album is one of my
favorites, and Ray Gillen's voice combined with Jake E. Lee's guitar
work was incredible.

A long time ago, I saw them live, and I thought that THEN. Holy crap they were so great. Ozzy did TWO sets.

How big is the video?

Fun fact: Back in 1993 I think it was, I sent an audition video tape to Ozzy when he was looking for a drummer. Got a nice rejection letter for my effort.
I think that's when he hired Mike Bordin (of Faith No More).

I should find and frame that letter...

d76 really isnt a bad run for that lifestyle. I went to ozzfest when i was l 14 it was great. Gettin all the old rockers to buy us beers haha.

Just one?! There were at least four or five here. Plus other -fests he showed up to. I went to all of them! Tried keeping the tickets over the years, but they've gotten lost in random junk boxes etc :/.

This may've been said here before, but it was amazing seeing him play a long, almost 2 hour set with his own band, and then ANOTHER long 2 hour set with Black Sabbath! Running back and forth the entire time. And I thought he was old /then/. Sheesh.

It is like he got to do one last show and then knew he could go in peace.

No one, and I mean NO ONE could get an audience full of young people go
to absolutely mental like he could. Listen to the crowd in the live
2-CD 'Live and Loud', it's amazing.
