when Tony Iommi lost his fingertips, it forced him to relearn the guitar and he found that tuning down the guitar made it far easier for him to play, basically creating heavy metal. a darker themed band naturally goes with that type of sound.
That too, but they were already doing weird shit.
FunFact: it was his mum's fault. He wanted to quit working in the metal shop that day, but she made him go in and serve a two-week notice. He was distracted, and off came the fingertips. Read his book 'Iron Man', it's great. Ozzy's book is a scream.
i loathe ozzy mostly because of sharon.
i was at ozzfest 2005 exclusively to see Iron Maiden. she had goons throw eggs at them during their set and had the plugs pulled during like fucking phantom of the opera's solo and other moments. just actually fucked with their set. i'll never stop wishing she was dead for fucking with Maiden, and ozzy by association.
when his dead corpse came up, he actually sounded like a fucking retard. i am not exaggerating. he sounded like he was retarded, trying to sing his own lyrics he can't remember reading off of a teleprompter. it was shameful and disgusting. i wanted to leave; buddy wanted to hear The Wizard. as if that dead fucking corpse could break out a fucking harmonica and play the fucking Wizard. so no wizard came, sat through the whole shit show, and if it was just a seriously terrible day.
the only shining beacon was just how much of an absolute show Maiden put on, despite the fuckery.
I remember this and agree 100%. Can't stand Sharon and love the fact they almost buried her ass with this whole talkshow fiasco that went down here recently. I can't stand her voice, her personality, or those ugly ass kids she gave birth too, the bitch is a total disaster as a woman. Oh yeah and then there's this shit that she seemed to find sick fucking humor in along with these other irrelevant cunts a few years back. https://youtu.be/80JqoyaL-p4
He has a long history of drugs and alcohol, and shitty concerts. I saw him in the 80s when he was awesome. Sharon is a jewess cunt daughter of a mob goon. FunFact: she was already rich when she met Ozzy, who was broke at the time.
