[Judas Iscariot]

WAT EEN RAMP!

[Amibor]

Vaag. Ach ja, moet een topband als Maiden maar niet meedoen met zo'n kutfestival als Ozzfest, en zeker niet als je weet dat een of andere gestoorde feeks het organiseert.

[zwarte krijser]

Dit is wel degelijk interessant nieuws, check vooral

Sharon then came out for what appeared to be damage control, thanking MAIDEN and the crew — and then said, 'but their singer Bruce Dickinson is a prick, he has insulted Ozzfest since he got here...' or something to that affect.

Rommel in het Ozzy/IM kamp dus. Het werkt 2 kanten op hoewel Bruce het wat subtieler doet. 'You'll never hear MAIDEN on U.S. radio, MTV and certainly never see them in a reality show,'

Ik denk zelf overigens dat de oorzaak van dit ruzietje wel in het Ozzy kamp zal liggen.

[Lone Starr]

En Sabbath heeft dit ook helemaal niet nodig, laat ze gewoon Dio terugnemen en dit soort zeik ontwijken.

[Djaser]

Ik geloof niet dat het iets met Sabbath zelf te maken heeft maar met het Ozzfest management.

[Lone Starr]

Daarom zeg ik ook dat ze maar gewoon van Ozzy en co af moeten.

[Djaser]

Het gerucht gaat nu ook al weer dat Kelly Osbourne aan het eieren gooien was. Het zal wel een grap zijn maar je weet het nooit.

[Kaleidoscope]

Waar haal je op een festival je eieren vandaan, en gaan die tijdens het moshen niet kapot?

[AltarOfSacrifice]

Ze waren met z'n allen naar de supermarkt gweest geloof ik.

[Kaleidoscope]

Stel lui in de supermarkt die even 100 treefjes eieren kopen (of jatten). En die zo het festival terrein opkomen.

[NochdFaol]

Jammer voor ozzfest ze krijgen hierdoor een redelijk slechte naam, wat ik er van gelezen heb is dat tijdens Black Sabbath (na maiden dus) meer dan 2000 mensen weg zijn gelopen.

[nightwing]

allemaal skaters daar, past met gemak een pallet eiers in zo broek.

Heb verder niks tegen skaters. Of wijde broeken, draag ze zelf namelijk ook.

[arnibes]

Domme amerikanen.....

Hail to the king, baby

[HellcommandeR]

Jammer, en dat Sharon-geval moeten ze ook eens flink de les lezen. Het zou je moeder maar wezen...fuck.

[sammath]

die kankerhoer van een sharon had al lang in een graf moeten liggen.


Kutvolk


up the irons!!

Dat vind ik overdreven. Ozzfest is voor veel Europese bands een kans om intensief in Amerika te kunnen toeren. Alleen de wijze waarop Sharon zichzelf naar het publiek uitlaat staat me voor geen meter aan.

[IROn]

Ik lees het hele verhaal net ook. Het ruikt sterk naar een vooraf geplande actie van Sharon & Co. 4 of 5 keer een kapotte PA kan nooit toeval zijn.

Lees ook de ooggetuigenverslagen op de in de openingspost genoemde site.

[ruben somewhere online]

Kinderachtig hè, jaloezie?

[IROn]

Duidelijk. Het feit alleen al dat iemand via de PA "Ozzy Ozzy" roept als Maiden opkomt, er zijn heus geen doorgedraaide Sabbathfans backstage, moet iemand van de organisatie of iemand anders met bevoegdheid daar geweest zijn.

[Zorya]

up the irons!!

Nounounou.

Up the irons, dat wel.

Verder vind ik het maar een trieste bedoening.

[Oak]

die kankerhoer van een sharon had al lang in een graf moeten liggen.

Anders Ozzy wel...

[Lone Starr]

Ik denk niet dat Ozzy er schuld aan is, eerder dat Sharon het Ozzy-marktaandeel met een %tje wil verhogen door Maiden te kleineren.

[Dennus]

Ozzy lijkt mij een vrij sympathieke en rielekste kerel, maar die Sharon

Maargoed, zonder Sharon had Ozzy waqarschijnlijk al lang onder de zoden gelegen en hadden we toch een paar klassiekers minder gehad vandaag de dag.

[AltarOfSacrifice]

Duidelijk. Het feit alleen al dat iemand via de PA "Ozzy Ozzy" roept als Maiden opkomt, er zijn heus geen doorgedraaide Sabbathfans backstage, moet iemand van de organisatie of iemand anders met bevoegdheid daar geweest zijn.

Precies.. maar daarom zie ik nog geen reden waarom ze zoiets zouden doen

[The Horseman]

Ozzy lijkt mij een vrij sympathieke en rielekste kerel, maar die Sharon

Maargoed, zonder Sharon had Ozzy waqarschijnlijk al lang onder de zoden gelegen en hadden we toch een paar klassiekers minder gehad vandaag de dag.

Jij snapt het

[Rene]

Dat schijnt die gast te zijn geweest die Battle For Ozzfest had gepresenteerd.

"You'll never hear MAIDEN on U.S. radio, MTV and certainly never see them in a reality show,'

MEGA! Die zit haha. Wel lef van die gozer hoor!

Maar verder een megatrieste bedoening om met t geluid te kloten etc pfff.

och, het ozzy kamp zal wel zeggen dat dat komt wegens gebrek aan talent.

De link doet het bij mij niet, wat staat er precies?

BLABBERMOUTH.NET has received a number of e-mails regarding last night's (August 20) Ozzfest concert in Devore (near San Bernardino), California, which reportedly included an on-stage appearance following IRON MAIDEN's set by Sharon Osbourne during which she called MAIDEN vocalist Bruce Dickinson a "prick." The following report was submitted by David Priest, editor-in-chief of On Track Magazine:

"Last night's [August 20] headlining performance of IRON MAIDEN at Ozzfest in San Bernardino, CA rendered some interesting, if not disturbing, results. Although MAIDEN played one hell of a show, they were under attack from the moment they began their set. From the time they hit the stage, they suffered power loss on at least three occasions and they were continuously pelted with ice, bottle caps, and eggs, among other things. Vocalist Bruce Dickinson was even spit on by one attendee. He seemed to believe these occurrences were not by accident and insinuated that they had been planned from the beginning of the night [Download MP3 files of Bruce's on-stage rants at last night's Ozzfest: Bruce#1, Bruce#2]. He also encouraged the other audience members to break the arm of anyone that they saw throwing things their way. Upon concluding their performance, the emcee for the evening began to chant Ozzy, Ozzy while Bruce was still speaking. Bruce retaliated by chanting MAIDEN. After he left the stage, Sharon Osbourne took over the mic and informed the crowd that they absolutely loved IRON MAIDEN and their crew and stated that they were all wonderful but that their singer Bruce Dickinson was a prick and had disrespected Ozzfest since they began their stint with the touring summer festival [Download MP3 file of Sharon's anti-Bruce rant at this location]. This, of course, came as a shock to those of us in attendance and the there was ample confusion and speculation from audience members there after. As previously announced, last night's show marked the final performance of IRON MAIDEN on this year's Ozzfest. VELVET REVOLVER will be taking over their slot on the last remaining dates."

Here are a few more eyewitness accounts, as submitted by BLABBERMOUTH.NET readers:

-------------------------------------------------

"Tonight was the last show of IRON MAIDEN's leg of the Ozzfest. Unfortunately the rest of the tour will have that spot filled by VELVET REVOLVER. There has been some sniping and such going on during this tour between Ozzy's camp and Bruce Dickinson, but that had been kept for the most part away from the fans it appears. So, IRON MAIDEN is playing a 55-minute set (though they've played full shows on the nights SABBATH cancelled on this tour because Ozzy can't to back to back nights.)

"MAIDEN is about to come on and right before a voice on the PA starts chanting 'Ozzy, Ozzy.' MAIDEN comes on and starts getting pelted with eggs from one area of the pit. Some dude has three dozen eggs. Bruce calls this out quickly. Next, during 'The Trooper', where Bruce waves a large British flag, some big dude painted red walks out from backstage with an American flag and on his back painted 'Don't f(#$ with Ozzy).' Tackled, he appeared off stage again. Then after Bruce declared 'You'll never hear MAIDEN on U.S. radio, MTV and certainly never see them in a reality show,' he says they will play 60 minutes, not 55. So, during two of their most popular songs (note: they are only playing songs from the first four albums, so 40,000 metalheads and idiots are going nuts), their PA and power goes off. Unbelievable, they handled it fine as almost if they expected it. They then do an encore and Bruce says something about the 'We the People' and nobody is going to stop them, not eggs, a guy spitting on them (until Bruce had him tossed) or a PA hoax and they play two more songs. Then they finish and are bowing and saying goodnight and the Ozzy voice comes on to chant, Bruce tries to change it to MAIDEN chant and then says, 'Are you as sick of this BS 'cause we are.' And they walk off.

"THEN: Sharon [Osbourne] comes on stage and asks for everyone’s attention and half ass praises and thanks IRON MAIDEN but say the singer Bruce is a prick and has been slagging the tour. 40,000 are stunned and start to boo and throw stuff, but most were stunned by the surreal moment. SABBATH then came out and did a good set like last year's with a much improved, yet hoarse, Ozzy. They started doing medleys thought, not good. But the rest, eesh."

[Lennert]

Ok, uiteindelijk deed de link het nu wel maar gloeiende *** wat een vies vuil kutwijf is die Sharon

[IROn]

[..]


Precies.. maar daarom zie ik nog geen reden waarom ze zoiets zouden doen

Inderdaad, het is gewoon een zielige zinloze actie, een falende poging om te compenseren dat het grootste deel van de bezoekers voor Maiden kwam.

[AltarOfSacrifice]

Erg kinderachtig dus. Ze hebben niet eens door hoe hard ze zichzelf voor lul zetten volgens mij.

[Lennert]

Het is echt zo dom, maar ik voel me op dit moment echt gewoon gruwelijk kwaad op dat kutwijf. Het doet me dan ook heel erg goed om de reacties van mensen te lezen die Ozzfest afzweren en Sharon een aantal gruwelijke dingen toewensen.

Overigens, waarom heeft niemand die eiergooiers neergebashed?

[IROn]

Erg kinderachtig dus. Ze hebben niet eens door hoe hard ze zichzelf voor lul zetten volgens mij.

Inderdaad, omdat het verrotte amerikanen zijn.

Omdat het verrotte amerikanen zijn.

[Took]

Overigens, waarom heeft niemand die eiergooiers neergebashed?

omdat de mensen die dichtgenoeg erbij staan om eieren te gooien, van die plebs zijn die veel geld neertellen voor een kaartje om lekker vooraan te kunnen zitten, zonder dat het ze wat kan schelen wat er optreedt. En wat vriendjes van de organisatie, natuurlijk. het is daar niet zoals in Europa, met een grote vloer voor het podium waar je kan gaan en staan waar je wilt.

[grafzerk]

grappig!

(Maar ik was het niet hoor!)

[Lennert]

Nee, dit heeft niks met Amerikanen te maken. Ondanks dat ik graag grappen maak over dit volk mogen de Amerikaanse fans absoluut niet beledigd worden en uitgescholden voor verrot omdat dat verdomde kutwijf van een Sharon Osbourne de boel wil verzieken. Overigens zijn zij en Ozzy zelf ook Engels, dus daar zal het zeker niet om te doen zijn.

Kijk maar op blabbermouth en lees de anti-ozzfest en anti-Sharon berichten van AMERIKAANSE fans

[Indur]

Dit is nogal een kutstreek.

[Dragonforce]

Heeft iemand al de aantal keren dat Bruce fuck zegt geteld

Dit vraagt om anti-Osbourne acties!

[Took]

From IRON MAIDEN's official message board:

"About 10 minutes before MAIDEN came on, I was in the center of the pit a few feet from the front railing when a guy comes barging in from the right escorting 4 or 5 people. At first, I tell him to F-off because I thought he was trying to take my spot, but he said he worked for Ozzfest and showed me his passes. He also told me that Ozzy's daughter was with the entourage he brought with him. There were a few girls with him and one of them looked a little like Kelly Osbourne, but I couldn't tell for sure because all of them were wearing bandanas over their noses and mouths. After I heard her speak, I was pretty sure. At that point, I tapped her on her arm and said, 'I really liked you on the show. You were great,' to which she responded, 'Thank you.' There was no doubt at that point. The bodyguard who came with them starting getting chumy with us because he needed a few of us to help him protect the girls from the moshing that would start when MAIDEN came on. I saw the girls passing eggs, and I said, 'What's that for?' The bodyguard said something to the effect, 'You'll see. Something big is going down. You'll hear about it everywhere after tonight. It's all because Bruce Dickinson made some comments in Detroit dissing the 'Osbournes' reality TV show.' He also said that there were about 60 people in the pit who were going to participate in the mayhem. Most of them were wearing the same Ozzfest shirts. Before MAIDEN came on, they all started chanting, 'Ozzy, Ozzy...' I actually saw Bruce off to the left of the stage before they came on. His mike was on and he said something like, 'What the fuck?' — probably in response to the 'Ozzy' chanting.

"When MAIDEN came on, eggs started flying and all these guys were flipping off the band. Nicko had to stop after one song to clean his set. Bruce was obviously very pissed. Thank God they continued their set. At one point, someone through a cup of corn with milk or something. It got all over Bruce, me, and about a dozen other people. Then the technical problems started. The sound went out on about three songs — 'Phantom of the Opera', 'Hallowed be thy Name', and one other one I can't remember. I could not believe what was going on. I was furious because I didn't want the guys in MAIDEN to think badly of the fans who love them. I do think that Bruce understood because the band continued to play the full set, and Bruce made comments to distinguish the fans there from the guys throwing stuff. Towards the end of the set, Bruce started yelling at a guy in the pit to my left about 10 feet. Bruce said he saw him throwing stuff and wanted the fucker out. It took a long time for security to get him out. The reason why is that one guy from Kelly Osbourne's entourage was holding down the guy security was trying to take out. Eventually security pulled both of them out. After MAIDEN's set, it was obvious that Sharon Osbourne was in on it, because she came out to say that 'Bruce Dickinson is a prick.'

"Needless to say, it was insane. I was really pissed that MAIDEN got treated this way. I wanted to enjoy their set and instead got drama from egg throwing and songs cut short by someone pulling the power. Bruce was obviously pissed and the rest of the band seemed a little irritated. It showed in their playing too because some of the songs were sloppy, but of course you couldn't blame them given the situation."

[SatanicA]

Heel erg triest dit.
Slaat compleet nergens op.

kan de muziek van ozzy nog wel hebben, maar verder ben ik compleet uitgescheten op die kut familie.

gevalletje jaloezie???

...

En dan te bedenken dat ik mensen nooit heb begrepen die helemaal freaken als er iets misgaat met hun favoriete band. Fuck wat ik vroeger dacht, ik begrijp het nu helemaal compleet hoe het voelt.

En kan iemand mij vertellen waar Bruce ooit heeft gezegd dat hij Amerikanen haat? Dat kutwijf heeft hoop ik Ozzfest nu voorgoed gruwelijk de ondergang in gesleept.

[Dennus]

Dat kutwijf heeft hoop ik Ozzfest nu voorgoed gruwelijk de ondergang in gesleept.

Voor zover ik weet heeft Ozzfest nooit iets voorgesteld.

[The Reckoning]

Ik ben nooit weg geweest van Maiden, maar dit verdient een band met zo'n status niet natuurlijk.
