More OzzFest 2006 News Including Tour Dates

We have the press release for OzzFest 2006. You can find out why Ozzy is only doing 10 shows, who the bands will be and find out what some of those bands think of being on OzzFest. As a special treat, we have the list of cities OzzFest will be visiting in 2006.

———–

“They came, they saw, they pumped fists,” wrote Entertainment Weekly last year about the fans who experienced the “sweaty-heady essence” of the 10th anniversary of the king of festivals, the mighty OZZFEST .

And now, amped up to 11, the summer’s premiere touring concert festival enters its second decade this July with clenched teeth and trademark invincible spirit. OZZfest will roll out July 1 in San Francisco and visit 20 cities, with venues TBA.

Founder and namesake OZZY OSBOURNE is set to headline just 10 shows this summer. Why? “Because after 10 years I feel it’s time to let someone else share the headlining spotlight. We want to shake it up a bit this year,” says OZZY. “I’ve closed virtually every OZZfest performance for a decade now and I feel I can finally let other artists headline our festival and that’s my intention for the future.”

Star Wars Television Show Announced

Source: EmpireOnline.com

Rick McCallum on the 100 Episode agreement George Lucas agreed to do. “That’s not going to happen probably for another year and a half while we develop scripts and everything else. But it’s fantastic; we’ve got some incredible writers. It’s going to be much darker, much more character-based, and I think it’s going to be everything the fans always wanted the prequels to be. They’ll be one-hour episode. It takes place between Episodes III and IV. It’s going to be all-new characters, maybe a few bounty hunters in there to start the series off.”

Now the question is what TV station is this going to be on? I can only hope it is SciFis Friday Night Lineup with Battlestar Galactica.

Tools New Album title, Really!

Well it seems our earlier report of rumors that Tools new album would be called, Elephtheria are not true. However, it has been reported on Tool.com that the new album title is actually 10,000 days. You heard it correct, Tools new album is titled 10,000 days. So, I wouldnt count on the track listing to be accurate either. Sorry. We just report what we hear. Thats why they are called rumors…..

As for the title, I am not sure what to make of it. It kind of seems boring especially given the fact that Disturbed just released 10,000 Fists. Odd indeed…..
