July 21, 2009, 15 years ago
BLACK LABEL SOCIETY leader ZAKK WYLDE is this week's guest on Montréal, Québec's The Metal File with Mike Metal.
The CHOM 97.7 FM program can be heard online at this location.
As previously reported, Classic Rock recently caught up with OZZY OSBOURNE at the SLASH & FRIENDS gig in Norway, where the whispers backstage had guitarist John 5 (ex-MARILYN MANSON, currently with ROB ZOMBIE) lined up as a possible replacement for Zakk Wylde.
“Well, I’m getting a new guitar player as we speak,” said Ozzy, “and everyone has been saying to me for a long time, ‘Get Johnny 5!’ And I tried him at one time and I didn’t really give him a chance. We’ll see, I don’t know. I haven’t fallen out with Zakk, but Zakk’s got his own band, and I felt like my stuff was beginning to sound like Black Label Society. I just felt like I wanted a change, y’know?"
Zakk met with Ozzy on July 13th, and in a Twitter update states: "Hey Berserkers, Everything is great with Ozzy/Dad. See you at the BlizzCon convention in Anaheim (CA) August 22nd or before with BLS."
Stay tuned for further updates.
