Whatever of Ozz

Well, I went to Ozzfest last weekend. Black Label Society rocked the second stage. Dragonforce reminded me of Judas Priest. They sucked. Lucana Coil was the pick artist of the evening.

It was hot out there. Temperatures were in the high 90s. Somebody passed out in the area where my brother and I were seated. There was some excitement as a mass of security staff rushed to aide the heat victim.

Hatebreed did a decent job. I decided to walk around rather than listen to Avenged Sevenfold. Then Disturbed took the stage. Where do I start? The lead singer launched into a sermon complete with “brothers and sisters” talk. He went on a bend spewing liberal tripe about the war on terrorism, global warming and pop music. There was anger. There was hate. There were lies. What qualifies a recording artist to comment on matters of global politics anyway? Shut up with your short sighted opinions and sing already!
