OZZY OSBOURNE - who will kick off his fall North American arena tour November 12th in Victoria, BC - has now announced a second leg of US dates which will get underway January 16th, 2011 in Omaha, NE.

The six-week 2011 trek, part of the multi-platinum Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee’s in-progress 18-month world tour, will include a pair of intimate shows: January 26th at the Dodge Theater in Phoenix and February 1st at the Gibson Amphitheatre in Los Angeles. Ozzy's longtime friend and musical collaborator SLASH will open all the concerts on the second leg. Tickets for the Live Nation-produced tour go on sale beginning Friday, October 15th.

Osbourne recently completed a run of overseas festival appearances and headlining overseas performances including his first-ever concert in Israel: a September 28th OZZFest show at Hayarkon Park in Tel Aviv.

The Tel Aviv show was described by www.ynet.co.il as “one of the most important rock events in Israel, if not THE most important…There is no one that can contest Ozzy Osbourne's charisma and madness. Park Hayarkon was awash with energies and foam at the main performance of the Ozzfest…”

Elsewhere, www.mako.co.il noted: “We have waited for years and finally it happened - OZZFest arrived to the holy land. And as much as the anticipation was high - it shrinks in comparison to the real thing that happened on stage. Ozzy Osbourne lifted Tel Aviv with a crazy show. Osbourne managed to lift people up as only he can do. With simplicity and (relative) modesty, the prince of darkness gave his heart and soul with big love to the Israeli crowd and managed to jump and touch every single one of the tens of thousands of fans present.”

The www.mouse.co.il added, “The crowd was versatile and colorful, the other bands on the bill were great, but the real star of OZZFest was, undoubtedly, Ozzy Osbourne. The metal legend last night at Hayarkon Park gave a show worth living for.”

Later this week, Ozzy will perform shows in Japan (October 16th in Kobe and October 17th in Tokyo) before returning to the US to headline the Voodoo Experience festival Halloween weekend in New Orleans, LA; he will rock the three-day event at City Park City Saturday, October 30th.

Ozzy will then launch his first leg of solo dates which includes a December 1st show at Madison Square Garden in New York and wraps December 12th at the Target Center in Minneapolis. HALFORD, featuring legendary JUDAS PRIEST frontman Rob Halford, will perform on the 2010 dates.

The fall dates will coincide with the October 5th release of an expanded two-CD version of the Scream album. This “Tour Edition” package will feature seven bonus songs: a mix of previously unreleased tracks and live recordings. Epic Records has also issued a four-sided vinyl edition that includes five bonus tracks: the three aforementioned songs from the Scream sessions and the live version of 'Let Me Hear You Scream', along with the single version of 'Life Won't Wait' (the second single from Scream).
