Did Buzz's behavior at Ozzfest change your perception of him as an artist?**.

[FrankMeevy]

How do you think the personal interactions we have with musicians, like Buzz's seemingly dismissive attitude at Ozzfest, affect our appreciation of their music? Can a single incident overshadow their artistic contributions, or should we separate the art from the artist?",

I lost all respect for Buzz with his attitude, and especially Dale for their appalling and disruptive behaviour at Ozzfest. They should consider themselves lucky, any other tour would have dropped them at that point.

And I don't care for their seemingly dismissive and guile candour.

They should have been grateful to be sharing the stage with such talented  hardworking artists like Limp Bizkit, Ultraspank, and Coal Chamber.

Is this what this thread is about?

from the new issue of 'big brother':
"they like bands like limp bizket. you get a crowd in the 16,000 capacity:
the intelligence level goes down to nothing. a bunch of stupid morons who
know nothing about music, who blindly go and listen to whatever is on mtv.
and for some reason, and i cannot comprehend this, they like ozzy.
DID YOU EVER LIKE OZZY?
i never listened to his solo albums. i always thought they were kinda
stupid. i mean, who fucking cares? i'd rather go to the movies any day
than sit through that limp, sorry shit. is anyone in the world ever going
to show me some worth for that worthless drug addict? ozzy is a
buck-toothed mummy. it's horrible; his brain is completely ruined, yet
they've propped him up every night with two teleprompters that have
six-inch letters of 'generals gathered in their masses." fuck you; i mean,
fuck you! forty bucks to see that fucking garbage. ozzfest is the most
ass-kissing garbage you will ever see. some of the most worthless turds in
the world run that."

If anyone wishes to amuse themselves, sift through some of these beautiful replies as if I even need to prove my point. This is a goldmine (PS. I spotted a Crushr24 comment!!)

Who the fuck are the melvins anyway? what the fuck have they done to deserve
any respect? how dare he shoot his mouth off!!!
Ozzy and the Sabs have sold out concert venues and combined have sold over 20
million records!!! what the fuck have the Melvins done,and honestly Ive never
heard of them before other than reading this post.
some people should think before they speak and not be upset and vendictive all
because Ozzy and Sharon passed on them for an Ozzfest gig. Grow up Mr Melvin or
Bozo or whatever your stupid name is.

Oh well maybe its time the
Oz focused only on studio stuff and seriously consider quiting the tours
because he has overexposed himself ever since Ozzfest began.But this does not
mean that this dickhead from the Melvins can publicly bash Ozzy,when this guy
Bozo or whatever his name is can fill 15,000 seat arena and match only half of
Ozzy CD sales then maybe ill listen to what he has to say.I mean after all Ozzy
and the Sabs were considered innovators of their time,and from what I know the
Melvins are influenced from the Sabs,so what does that tell you.

I might have to assume this name under liner credits if I'm ever anonymously involved with a 70's influenced prog rock album recording project.

I believe that Buzz anno 2024 would never have said those things he said about Ozzy. Back then he did it for the shock effect, just for the hell of it and that`s totally ok, but I`m pretty sure he would acknowledge Ozzy more today. Cause even thought Ozzy has been a zombie, a funny and humouristic zombie I might add, since the ninethies, he has had some brilliant solo albums and some brilliant tracks. Mr Crowly, Bark at the moon, Centre of eternity etc, etc, one can`t deny that Ozzy knows where it`s at. He has also made some cheesy gruesome stuff, but he`s still a legend. Buzz is also a legend.

Maybe this is in regards to how the Osbourne's treated their band mates / artist. From what I've read the Osbourne's have fucked a lot of people over for song credits/royalties big time. It doesn't make it any better but Ozzy on drugs and drunk is not the most likable person either. His voice is shit most time because he's shit faced not because he can't sing. He ruined the 97 reunion tour live album because he is so off.

All true and when one of Ozzy's uncredited songwriters eventually begun agitating for his cut Sharon got Rob Trujilio and Mike Bordin, who were in Ozzy's band at the time, to re-record two of Ozzy's classic albums to screw the guy further. Both Rob & Mike played dumb and since said they didn't know that's what the re-recordings were about but I find that very hard to believe. But if they had have refused to do it Sharon would've fired them.

Carmine Appice recently opened up and said alot about getting fucked over by Sharon on the Bark At The Moon tour, then abruptly fired. I heard him on a radio interview, look it up. Real petty shit. The guy was already a drum legend. He was first allowed to sell his own T-shirts & drum books on the tour. At some point Sharon decided to have someone cut his face out with a pair of scissors on every shirt.

Buzz was spot on to call out Ozzfest for the shitshow it was. Bruce Dickinson was the only other guy with any clout to tell Sharon to fuck off and not budge. I saw that tour for free, Ozzfest '05, with Maiden playing stuff from the 1st four albums before they got the boot. Maiden was the highlight. Sabbath was decent enough, I can at least say I saw them once.
