The latest OzTV webisodes, featuring behind-the-scenes footage from OZZY OSBOURNE's February 14th in Moline, IL and February 16th date in Nashville, TN, can be viewed on YouTube below:
As previously reported, Gary Graff of The Macomb Daily recently interviewed Osbourne. An excerpt is available below:
“With everything I’ve done and gone through, I’m just a very lucky guy I’m not 6 feet under shoving up (expletive) daisies, y’know?” says Osbourne, 62, who’s sold more than 100 million albums worldwide on his own and as part of BLACK SABBATH, with whom he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2006.“I’m like the laboratory rat that survived.”
Scream has certainly put Osbourne back on the rock ‘n’ roll map. Produced by Kevin Churko and recorded with a new band that includes guitarist Gus G of FIREWIND stepping in for longtime collaborator ZAKK WYLDE, it finds Osbourne purposefully declaring “I’m a rock star” and hitting hard with anthems such as 'Let Me Hear You Scream', 'Soul Sucker', 'Fearless' and 'Let It Die'. He’s happy with the results, but Osbourne says that they weren’t necessarily by design.
“You know, throughout my career the most memorable things I’ve done have come out of nowhere,” he explains. “On the Scream album I didn’t go, ‘I want it to sound like this. I want it to sound like that.’ I can hear Sabbath. I can hear my solo stuff. I can hear contemporary things.Being Ozzy Osbourne, you’re very limited to what you can explore. If you try to be too clever, people will go, ‘Oh, it sounds too progressive.’ I mean, I couldn’t be (expletive) progressive if I tried to. But people like Ozzy to sound a certain way, so that’s what we’ve given them.”
