Re: Where’s Vince?
While I haven't heard anything "official", AI believes it was Mötley Crüe since that seemingly has become the consensus.



Pretty Sad that so many people automatically believed the Greedy B@stards had to be Crue.

Saw someone say it was Danzig, also heard System of a Down. And yes, AI is trash.
Would be surprised if it was Danzig, not that I don't think Glen would ask for more money, but I just don't see why they would be associated with Ozzy to begin with.
The more time goes by that nothing is said, the more I'm leaning towards it was all just bullshit from Sharon to promote the show, and there never was any "greedy" band.

Re: Where’s Vince?
Yeah, I can't see motley's mgr doing that. Public moral has been pretty shitty with Motley since the whole mick thing and the bass backing track stuff and what not. I have a hard time believing it was motley. They can't afford any more bad press right nowCaustic Queen wrote: ↑Fri Aug 01, 2025 8:08 amWhile I haven't heard anything "official", AI believes it was Mötley Crüe since that seemingly has become the consensus.![]()

It seemed very out of place to me. Why even mention it a week or two before the show? It just seemed to reek of drama. Like you have this huge event happening to celebrate your husband's career and final appearance and you are just going to put out some negative shit for no reason at all.

Years down the road if the topic comes up? Yeah, maybe mention it and spill the name. But a week before the show and you don't say who it is? Your just being dramatic.

Re: Where’s Vince?
He made it. Appears 7 songs w/no “home sweet home” looked about the same. Said doctors said he’d never play live again. “Shout” and “smoking in the boys room” are both on YouTube what you’d expect.
Bret before “fallen angel” said something about poison stadium tour. I’m hoping and guess that it’s fully booked but not stadiums, sheds obviously. I’d be irate they don’t headline sheds but pretty sure it’s a go.

Re: Where’s Vince?
The close up footage out there of Vince during Smokin in the Boys Room is weird. He definitely seems kind of out of it, but not drunk.

Re: Where’s Vince?
I seriously doubt Mötley was even asked in the first place. Sharon, Kelly, and Jack seemed pretty pissed that they used a picture of Ozzy's character with a coke straw in his nose for The Dirt avatar on Netflix. On their podcast, Ozzy tried to defend Nikki but Sharon and the kids, particularly Kelly, were not having it.

Because Ozzy actually gave a shit and worked his ass off to play one final show.

Re: Where’s Vince?
The fan in me was really hoping that the absence that he’s had was due to Ozempic or a nip tuck here and there andtime off from the singing to come back refreshed and healthy. Of course, I was wrong.
At least the drummer has a commanding presence on stage.

All that effort for travel and showtime for 30 minutes

Jesus Christ that is worse than expected. They barely limped though it. It looks like he’s relying heavily on teleprompters, to the point he’s standing in-front of it “singing” while obviously reading it… worse than HalfordWhatever Happened To… wrote: ↑Sat Aug 02, 2025 5:50 am https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fisAfBdL30Q

I noticed this during the stadium tour… I think I had said at the time, the lights are on but nobody is home.

What were we really expecting fromVince ? He has always been one of the laziest, unprofessional frontmen ever. I think he’s a year or two away from putting on some Jack Russel’s final tour shows. He has been an absolute embarrassment for 20 years already.

He looks like that due to using/abusing benzos (Valium). Abused them w alcohol off and on since his daughter died.
