Ozzy’s generation can get it together when they have to and do anything.

Given Ozzy’s condition, Matt Pinfield will be the MC.

My guess is he will be performing from a wheel chair.

I would be interested if the Ozzy Band set included some of - Jason Newstead, Carmine Appice, Bob Daisley, Brad Gillis and Tommy Aldridge. I’m going to assume it’s Zakk, Bordin,Trujillo and Jake as a guest ?

Even if Ozzy dies before the show, it'll still go ahead as a tribute gig. That'd probably be a better outcome than Ozzy actually performing, thinking about it.

Exactly, it's basically the Ozzy version of the Freddie Mercury tribute concert. Whether Ozzy is there or not is irrelevant.

And Don Costa, although I'm sure there's still plenty of flesh on his bones.

This.

The amount of refunds to be tendered for pissed off fans would really be something.

Yeah, Like Bowie, Queen , Motorhead?

Seriously, the biggest English Metal band wouldn't come if invited after what Sharon and her spawn did to them at Ozzfest.

The logical band would be Birmingham's finest, Judas Priest.

But I guess Rob's getting his nails done and only KK is willing/able to show up.

"In order for Ozzy fans around the world to experience this monumental event, the livestream will be delayed 2 hours from the in-arena start time."

Is delaying a live feed 2 hours a common practice?!

Same here. Thats the only thing im interested in seeing in this whole event. Seeing Jake get some public recognition from the ozzy camp for once in the last 38 years and getting to play live and all. Wonder what happened that persuaded the osbournes to acknowledge him now?

Tom Morrello, or whomever is in the Ozzy camps ear (Sharon) stressing that Shot in the Dark and Bark at the Moon are two songs that need to be recognized.

Yeah, that's BS. The only purpose this serves is it gives them two hours to edit the thing.

This is sadly, probably a good analogy.

I think Ric Flair's Final Match is probably also a good comparison.

If it's really Ozzy wanting to do this one last thing, and there's money going to charity, then it's probably a good thing that everyone has rallied around the event, and hopefully it'll be a great send off.

But maaaaaan, it smells like elder abuse from Sharon. Especially seeing as how it was her in the promo picture with Tony, and they couldn't figure out a way to get Ozzy to even hold up a soccer jersey.
I was on The Roast Of Rice Flair and I remember Jay Lethal coming up to me about an hour before the match saying "Earl I'm scared, Rip just told me he's not afraid to die in the ring tonight!" I don't know how that looked on tv but live I literally felt like I was about to watch someone die in the ring.

Ace & Peter got their royalties from KISS and they got a sweet retirement package of a 5 year reunion from 1996-2001.

I'd imagine Jake is getting airfare, limo service, two nights at a nice hotel, and catering.
