[Heeplist] Black Sabbath Show

[Rys]

Let me start by saying that I feel about Black Sabbath the way most of you 
feel about Heep.  However based on videos I've seen of the first couple of 
shows, and people's reactions I hate to say it but Sabbath are done.  It's 
not the same without Bill - they can't say it's a "reunion" if he's not 
involved.  I don't even know who's playing drums and honestly couldn't care 
less.  Ozzy has become a parody of himself  -- its almost like people are 
coming to shows just to see if he makes it to the end.  Tony's and Geezer's 
playing  - while still almost flawless - is wasted backing that clown. 
don't get me wrong - I love Ozzy so much - but it's like he's Sharon's 
puppet - as long as he's got breath in his lungs she's going to shove him up 
onstage for a quick money grab.

Just my two cents.

I love Sabbath but if this would have been just an Ozzy show no way I would 
have gone. Musicianship was good. ozzy was more saying/singing a lot of 
songs. Had a good time but that is it? for me with Sabbth live. I have a 
feeling this might be the last tour of these guys.



I wish uriah Hepp could have played with them, the opener was a DJ playing 
metal tumes and some hard rock.



Nice to hear the old songs/riffs live again, hell they even played Dirty 
Women from technical ecstasy. Lot of the paranoid album under the sun and 
snow blind from Had a good time over all

p.s. URIAH HEEP FOREVER
