    Celebrity deaths never hit for me, but this yanked the rug out. At least he got his honors at the tribute concert. The musicians that showed out at that concert say more about Ozzy’s impact than I could ever write.

        I wonder which band wanted to get paid?!

        Sad loss. “Diary of a Madman” was the first cassette I ever bought in 1982, at 12 years old. Then Bark at the Moon tour in 1984 with Motley Crue. 1986 Ultimate Sin tour with Metallica, No More Tours in 1992 with Motörhead. OzzY shows always rocked.

    You took me in and you drove me out<br> Yeah, you had me hypnotized, yeah<br> Lost and found and turned around<br> By the fire in your eyes<br> I’ve seen your face a thousand times<br> Every day we’ve been apart<br> I don’t care about the sunshine, yeah<br> 'Cause Mama, Mama, I’m coming home

    RIP Ozzy, hope you find your way home

        You mean Sabotage is your favorite Black Sabbath album. 😉 And, yes, I checked it out. I can stand it about 15 times in a row before I’ll start to get tired of my wife playing it repeatedly every second Saturday morning…
