OZZY - i used ta like and he's still cool live. i dont like CRUE, but i think i had Dr.Feelgood when i was like 10, so i wanna check em out. and EXODUS - im a huge fan of the old days, so i hope ta hear the classics. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 17,2010 1:00pm - boblovesmusic ""] I don't think Exodus is playing dude! haha |

| ___________________________________ [Aug 17,2010 2:47pm - LPCustom ""] I got free tickets last time and still overpaid. You explain that one! |
| __________________________________ [Aug 17,2010 2:51pm - brian_dc ""] only time I went to Ozzfest I walked away with intense food poisoning and the "well, at least I got to see Sabbath before I die" attitude. |

| ________________________________ [Aug 24,2010 7:54am - Spydre ""] My friend got 8 free tickets, so we figured we'd go. Only other times I went to Ozzfest were when Priest and Maiden played and even then it almost wasn't worth it. Free is free, though, and I haven't seen Halford since they opened for Maiden in 2001. |
| _________________________________ [Aug 24,2010 8:56am - oscarct ""] motley crue was good, vince neil sounded terrible. Ozzy sounded great |
| ______________________________ [Aug 24,2010 9:09am - blue ""] Got free tix from the kind Mr. Zack Wells at last thursday's BOF. Gonna be high as hell jamming out to Halford and Crue. Aaron, post schedules if you're going so I can know when to go inside. |

| ______________________________________ [Aug 24,2010 9:41am - Clazy Tlain ""] Went and seen the ozzfest in Hartford, CT on sat. Only caught CRUE and Ozzy. Crue, played everything alot slower than the original songs, mick mars should stop playing music as he cannot even perform solos properly any more (and im sure he is the reason why the songs are slower) they played every hit right off the bat, and i was curious what they would end with....well, 2 new "songs" and they ended with Helter Skelter, and that was awesome....before they did Home Sweet Home, Tommy Lee came out from behind the kit and interacted with the crowd....bummer...what a fucking lame adult-mall-rat- wigger-clutter punk faggot of a human being. Crue looked cool and then this faggot comes out and "yo" this and "word" that and "chillin'" this and "dope" that.....WHAT A GAY FAGGOT OF A MAN. you guys wrote SHOUT AT THE DEVIL for fucksake....Crue had ample lights and stage props to hide the fact that they have a zombie guitar player and a blink182 wigger faggot on the "skins".....AWFUL... Ozzy was fantastic of course, best i've seen him, played tunes from Ultimate sin, BATM, Blizzard - his band is fucking awesome and his new guitar player SMOKES zakk big time, this dude is flawless...and then some little chinese kid came out and they played "clazy tlain" - didnt see anyone else as most of the cool band members of these supergroups didnt even show up!!! (crowbar fatso) go see ozzy and remember why he rules and fuck the rest.... |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 24,2010 10:33am - ShadowSD ""] I went to the CT show too, I'll post a review in its own thread a little later. Just wanted to say I don't agree on Mars, he stopped playing solos at shows entirely for years, but at this show he hit all the solos including in Dr. Feelgood and ripped out in a couple songs (for Mick Mars at least). I actually couldn't believe it, I thought the dude had a foot in the grave, and he sounded the best I'd heard him in twenty years. Vince, who also couldn't hit high notes for about two decades, hit them really well to my equal surprise, and actually ran around the stage. I completely agree 1000% that Tommy's wigger talk sounded out of place and fucking stupid, though - then he whines that only four chicks flashed their boobs to the camera, fucking moron, maybe if you remembered this was a metal show and not a rap club all the chicks wouldn't be laughing at your sorry ass. I think his drumming was great though and the tempos were fine to me. When Tommy Lee remembers he's not Vanilla Ice but a fifty year old metal drummer who's still got his chops, he does fine. Ozzy's band also made sure to play all their songs adequately slow and it sounded great, I agree his band sounded awesome and by far the best of the night, the guitarist takes seriously his place in the Rhoads/Lee/Wylde lineage of guitarists who have played on an Ozzy album in the last thirty years, and the drummer was also especially good and was the most joyous I've ever seen someone play to a DAT Tape - if that makes any sense. Instead of being constrained by it the band just seemed to sit back and settle into it, emphasizing the downbeat and making it heavier. Crue also successfully went for the same effect in not playing quicker than studio tempo and that's why I don't get the knock for not playing faster (although I don't think they used a DAT, Vince wasn't relying on backing vocals much, except from Nikki here and there, unlike Ozzy's multi-layered vocals which popped up numerous times). |

This has to be the worst lineup I've ever heard of. |
| ____________________________________________ [Aug 24,2010 11:51am - FuckIsMySignature ""] lol at Marks Showplace All stars |
| __________________________________________ [Aug 24,2010 12:54pm - loveisafistnli ""] come to my metal DJ night at the model in allston after if any of you are around! |

| _______________________________ [Aug 24,2010 4:58pm - TIMMA ""] Well played FIMsy. So happy I didn't get roped into this douchefest. |
| ___________________________________________ [Aug 24,2010 5:03pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] seeing as how last time i got free tickets to a show down there with bands i didnt really care about .. my car fucking died. i decided it was a bad omen. also its raining. so fuck that. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 24,2010 6:03pm - boblovesmusic ""] you all missed the soon to be legendary Drowning Pool/Nonpoint set! Drowning pool and nonpoint playing together was the greatest moment in metal I've ever witnessed! |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 24,2010 6:08pm - nekronautli ""] I'm pretty good at sensing sarcasm. I didn't sense any in Wren's last post. |
| ___________________________________________ [Aug 24,2010 6:18pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] wren was not fitted with a sarcasm meter. |
| _____________________________________________ [Aug 24,2010 9:45pm - choices choices... ""] Did someone just say something mean about kirk:( |
| __________________________________________ [Aug 25,2010 10:09am - Death_Metal_Jim ""] SOAKfest 2010. ...was hoping HALFORD would sound like Priest and/or do plenty of covers, but they didnt and they didnt. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 25,2010 10:18am - the_reverend ""] I took pictures of nonpoint in 2002 I think and i never put them up cause they sucked. |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 25,2010 10:27am - BrianDBB ""] The band or the pictures or both I hope you didn't forget 3rd Strike and Sw1tched |
| ____________________________________________ [Aug 25,2010 10:39am - FuckIsMySignature ""] lol i liked Switched. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 25,2010 11:40am - the_reverend ""] the band sucked. the pictures sort of sucked too. |
| ____________________________________________ [Aug 25,2010 11:41am - FuckIsMySignature ""] but they had that song that was good that i dont remember the name it |
| ________________________________ [Aug 25,2010 4:50pm - mpc666 ""] Left after Nonpoint. Way too cold/shitty/rainy to stay in my open air seat through 4 more bands. I wanted to see Devildriver and Ozzy a lot, but whatever. Goatwhore, Saviours, Skeletonwitch, and Kingdom of Sorrow were all awesome. Nonpoint was shitty. |
| _________________________________________ [Aug 25,2010 5:08pm - Death_Metal_Jim ""] wut was up with that 9 year old chinese lesbian in bondage playing guitar for crazy train!? freaky. |
| ________________________________________ [Aug 25,2010 8:06pm - josh_hates_you ""] i attended this shitfest for 3 hours. Glad i got a free ticket. It embodied EVERYTHING i hate about festivals, mainstream rock/metal and guy dude douche bags. halford - meh crue - sloppy for the most part. lol @ tommy lee. ozzy - saw about 6 ozzy songs and left. new guitar player is great. too clean though. lacks feeling. i hate zakk wylde but i prefer the dirtier more raw sound he offers. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 26,2010 9:35am - ShadowSD ""] From those I've talked to the MA show sounds like it was a lot worse than the CT one, especially when it comes to Motley Crue. Rain also can make a big difference if you're in the lawn, it looked like it was going to rain at the CT one the whole night with the way the overcast looked but we got lucky, otherwise it would have been a much shittier experience. |
