According to legend, the press was not too kind to Black Sabbath during itsformative years, so the metal band rarely grants the media any special privileges. I was also a little wary. E-Centre security guards have a reputation for being pricks, VIP pass or no VIPpass. There's no place like Ozzfest. Large Harley-Davidson types stand in circles, their black tattoos turned greenwith age.
Young girls walk around with painted chests.
College punks vomit on themselves. With Ozzy's Machine Guns. As expected, it takes about two hours of arguing with countless yellow and blue shirts before somebody manages to getme past the first guard and into the backstage area. Backstage is a little less exciting than the rest of Ozzfest, especially on the patio. Women come up to the bald guy from Slayer to rub his tattooed head.
