OZZFEST2010

• 15th Jun 2010

Do we not have enough rock legends in the UK this summer touring or festivaling? ACDC, Aerosmith, Stone Temple Pilots, Bon Jovi, Alice Cooper, Iron maiden, Rammstein, Alice In Chains, Rage Against The Machine to name but very few… Well quite frankly the answer is no. So bring on the Ozzfest!

The legendary touring behemoth that is OZZFEST is set to hit the UK with a one-off date at London’s O2 arena on September 18th 2010. OZZY OSBOURNE will be accompanied on the main stage by KORN, MURDERDOLLS and SKINDRED, plus a special guest TBC, with more acts still to be announced for the second stage. In addition to the music on offer, OZZY and co will take over the entire O2 complex, offering up a Village Of The Damned, with fairground rides, stalls and tattooists.

Headlined by OZZY OSBOURNE, the legendary Prince Of Darkness will lead the charge. OZZY – who’s solo albums have all achieved top 40 chart success in the UK – is currently gearing up to release his 10th studio album “Scream”, which will hit the streets on June 21st.

Flying in from Bakerfield, USA, the multi-million selling, Grammy Award-winning KORN will be showcasing new material from their forthcoming new album, “Korn III – Remember Who You Are”, whose first single ‘Oildale (Remember Who You Are)’ is out today.

OZZFEST will also offer the opportunity for UK fans to give MURDERDOLLS a hearty welcome back from the dead after a six year absence. JOEY JORDISON and WEDNESDAY 13 return with “Women and Children Last” at the end of August, and their set at OZZFEST will see the horror-rockers airing brand new material for the first time since their 2002 debut.

Welsh raga-punks and former KORN touring partners SKINDRED come armed with a truly unique blend of metal, punk, rap and reggae for their O2 arena debut. Charismatic frontman BENJI WEBBE expresses his delight at being part of the most well established touring package in the world of metal.
