According to a NME interview, Ozzy claimed that Tony Blair could never play Black Sabbath’s Iron Man
“I met Tony Blair a couple of years ago, and he said to me, ‘I was in a band once, and I could never get the riff to ‘Iron Man’ right,’” recalled Osbourne. “I thought, ‘Why are you telling me about ‘Iron Man’ when there’s a war going on?’”
I just wish my dad was as progressive.

CD1:
01. When
02. Ghost Of Perdition
03. Under The Weeping Moon
04. Bleak
05. Face Of Melinda
06. The Night And The Silent Water
CD2:
01. Windowpane

Commented Mikael Åkerfeldt: “The Roundhouse concert will always be a very memorable gig for us for many reasons, but most importantly it caught the band at the peak of the ‘Ghost Reveries’ tour. I must say we’re quite tight after 18 odd months on the road supporting the record. I’m extremely pleased we got it documented and I hope it will please our beloved fans as well. As an extra bonus we’ve decided to collaborate with one of our past labels for this release, the legendary Peaceville Records. Here’s a toast to Hammy and Lisa for helping us back in the day as well as to the new team for preserving this pleasurable memory for today’s music lovers as well as for generations to come.”

Music video and review from Van Halen’s first show for tour

Music video and review from Van Halen’s first show for tour
Some review excerpts from the Charlotte Observer for Van Halen’s first reunion show:
Any animosity wasn’t apparent on stage as Roth and Eddie Van Halen saddled up next to each other, smiling, during “Everybody Wants Some” and “Dance the Night Away.” Roth and Wolfgang Van Halen even sang “Oh Pretty Woman” side by side.
The younger Van Halen proved to be a showy player and spot-on backing vocalist, although he didn’t yet prowl the stage like a seasoned vet.
His post rehab father looked skinny, but cut, as did his brother. In fact, the original members all looked fit, though none ran around the stage like they did 25 years ago.
Led Zeppelin’s Robert Plant has ruled out a potential reunion tour
September 28, 2007
According to Gigwise.com, Led Zeppelin’s Robert Plant has ruled out a potential reunion tour.
“We need to do one last great show, because we’ve done some shows and they’ve been crap.”
He also told Daily Express
“I know I’m getting on. When I do come back from touring I’m shocked to find a lot of my mates tend to be going to bed far too early and that means I should probably be doing the same. Maybe I should stop having a good time and get old,” the singer confessed.
All those promoters need to do is a few more zeros on the offer. A reunion tour will happen is my guess.
