Wow, you are so lucky. I envy anyone who has seen Rhoads.
I recently read an article where Ozzy was interviewed in 2020 and was asked “What epitaph would you like to have for your grave?”. Ozzy replied “Bats taste like s–t.”
LOL!!! It would have been even funnier, if he said “tastes like Sharon.”
That is what I am going to miss most, about Ozzy, is his wicked sense of humor. As much as I love his music, I actually loved his public persona, even more. I found him funnier than most professional comics, as he always made me laugh, and I adored his dimples.
Yes, I am one of the lone females, who thought he was a very handsome man. He reminded me of my grandpa, who also happened to be half British.
Saw him four times as a solo artist…….Once with Randy Rhoads, once with Brad Gillis, and twice with Jake E Lee. Always a great entertainer. And saw him once with Sabbath…..on “The End” tour.
I saw him twice, one with Zakk, on his No More Beers tour, and one with the Sabbath reunion in 1999.
Again, I envy all those who saw Rhoads.
When I was in law school in 2017, I took a break and went to Chicago Open Air; stayed at a nice hotel, Chicago is such a great city, you can have a great time by yourself, the people are great. Thursday night I checked the vibrant local music scene and saw a great cover band, had this nice woman ride me around in a bike carriage. Then Friday I would get up about 9, have a nice breakfast at the hotel and get to Wrigley field at about 11 an, and stay all day. You can’t leave until it ends so it becomes its own world. Last time I saw Kiss was that night, Saturday, Korn closed it. There was a Satanic theme throughout the whole event with the merch, most of the bands, and the people in the crowd. But then Ozzy closed the event and it was like God had the last word…I actually almost cried, it was so beautiful seeing Ozzy and feeling him, he was right there in front of me. Ozzy could connect with a crowd because it was really his soul he was putting out there…I have tears running down my face now …God Bless you Ozzy, I hope you ended up somewhere nice.
