Ozzy & Zombie
Last Friday was the Ozzy/Zombie show. Doug and I were at the Hard Rock for a pre-show party with the opening band In This Moment. It was the first time I had met them and they were all very nice people.
At 6pm I caught a ride with Jeremy down to the Joe to interview John5. John has been on the Chop Shop 3 times in the past and is a native Detroiter so it always good to see him.

After the interview I worked my way over to the Ozzy meet & greet. It is the 1st time I’ve been face to face with Ozzy since 1994/95. He is defiantly looking MUCH older, but he really sounded good on stage.

After meeting with Oz, I met with Zakk Wylde. Brother Zakk and I go back a good 15 years. Zakk is always one of the most “real” rock starts you could ever hope to meet and he was making everyone laugh backstage.

When I was done talking with Zakk, Zombie was already on stage. I walk out on the floor and watched most of the Zombie show from the 10th row.

When Ozzy came on I started in the 7th row….until he brought out the foam gun. At that point I went back and joined some friends further back on the floor. For the last 6 songs I worked my way up to the 2nd row.

Both Zakk and J5 were on fire. All and all a brilliant show.
