![]() | ozzfest to feature metallica
All eyes and ears will be on Dallas, Texas Saturday, August 9. No conspiracy theory here--just the facts. OZZFEST--the original and iconic hard rock festival--returns in 2008 as a one-day stadium spectacular that teams OZZFEST founder and namesake Ozzy Osbourne (in his only U.S. concert appearance this summer) with Metallica (marking their OZZFEST debut). Produced by Sharon Osbourne and AEG LIVE, the all-day festival at Pizza Hut Park in hard music-loving Dallas will feature three stages of non-stop talent (with many OZZFEST alumni) and reliably twisted OZZFEST side attractions. The full main stage lineup will also spotlight performances by Serj Tankian (System of a Down), Hellyeah, Jonathan Davis (Korn), Cavalera Conspiracy, Shadows Fall, Apocalyptica and In This Moment. Also scheduled on the main stage is a special all-star tribute to slain Pantera guitarist ‘Dimebag’ Darrell Abbott. Second stage acts include Sevendust, Devildriver, Kingdom of Sorrow, Soilent Green, Witchcraft and Goatwhore. The Texas (third) stage—“an homage to the “many great metal bands that come from Texas,” says Sharon Osbourne--features The Sword, Drowning Pool and Rigor Mortis. “Ozzy just finished an 11-month world tour so I think he deserves a summer off,” Sharon says about this year’s one-day OZZFEST. “We’re going to be a stadium destination festival for now--we have gone past doing the sheds every summer. We’ve given everyone else the blueprint and we have to keep evolving OZZFEST. This is just the beginning; AEG Live and I have a lot of new ideas for OZZFEST.” This year’s dynamic line-up encompasses artists who’ve played OZZFEST before in different incarnations such as Serj Tankian (System of a Down); Jonathan Davis (Korn); Hellyeah’s Vinnie Paul (Pantera) and Chad Gray (Mudvayne); Kingdom of Sorrow’s Jamie Jasta (Hatebreed) and Kirk Windstein (Down); and Max Cavalera (Soulfly, Sepultura) of Cavalara Conspiracy. Other OZZFEST graduates include Shadows Fall, Sevendust, Devildriver, Drowning Pool and In This Moment. “Ozzy has great relationships with all of the bands that have played OZZFEST,” says Sharon. “We’re the only real festival for harder edge bands and these artists have been very loyal to us--there is lots of love on this line-up.” Tickets for this year’s OZZFEST will go on sale Saturday, May 31.

i went to ozzfest back in 05’...when i got there I was really impressed by all the concession booths they traveled with....at one booth they were spray painting girls tits and of course every hesher from mesquite to haltom city was pressing up trying to get an eye-full....so its really hot out and every now and then some chick would walk by with her tits painted like tiger stripes or some shit....anyway it was hot and it was late afternoon at this pint....im standing in front of my seat and turn around and about 5 or 6 rows behind me there is the big fat frizzy haired girl standing there with no shirt on and her giant flabby tits painted like an american flag....now its really hot out so shes sweating and I mean a lot....so much so that the sweat from underneath her gigantic breasts is causing the red, white and blue paint from her american flag to drip down her belly and all over her wrangler cut-off shorts...all I could think was “these colors don’t run”.....i think I laughed for an hour straight
