Bassist Geezer Butler - "My GZR Band Is On Hold For Now"
March 9, 2007, 17 years ago
Bassist Geezer Butler (HEAVEN AND HELL, BLACK SABBATH) has issued the following update:
"Well, it's almost here, time to get the hair dye out. We're all rehearsed and ready to go. Canada, and eventually the world, here we come! As you may have heard, the band is called Heaven And Hell. We'll be playing a selection of songs from all three Dio-era albums (of Sabbath), and three new songs.My GZR band is on hold for now, but songs will be written along the way, hopefully culminating as an album sometime in 2010, the Lord or Darwin or Richard Dawkins permitting.
I will endeavor to keep all informed along the rocky road, both highlights and low-lights, and my thoughts thereupon.
Soon, you all must rush out and buy [or stay in and download] Black Sabbath - The Dio Years album, as offered by our gracious hosts Rhino Records. So hope to see you all soon, and enjoy the show!"
