It was my youngest sons’ first gig and a year on we got to rock with Zak (who was playing with Pantera) and Metallica. Pantera did a nice tribute to Ozzy with “Fairies in boots”.
Metallica held up a sign that said “Do it for Ozzy” which got a nice round of cheers of “Ozzy, Ozzy” and the Kirk/Rob skit included “Electric Funeral”.
Had a great time 🦇 🤘
Can't believe it's already been a year since Back to the Beginning. I was going through my photos and videos from the day and found this previously unposted video, so I thought I'd share it for the anniversary.
I feel like I remember them saying the concert was being filmed and would be released as a full production. Is that still happening? I really hope so. It would be great to re-live the day and show family what I was up to
After about 90 mins waiting to get in, I thought I'd snag a little memory of walking into the stadium for the first time. Hopefully it brings back some good memories for some of you!
I scored two tickets two days before the show through the Aston Villa Fan Club site, THEN looked at flights and saw it was going to be a very pricey endeavor. There was an option to sell so we thought about it, weighed the options, weighed the price, and ultimately decided to get rid of the tickets. Welp, the tickets weren’t able to be sold, we spend a ton of last-minute flights/accommodations, and it couldn’t have been a better decision. It was the greatest day of music I could imagine.
Am really thinking about going back for the proposed Ozzfest there next year.
Thinking about selling this beauty as could do with the cash. There was only a handful released at Selfridges Birmingham for the back to the beginning concert. It is an official collab between Black Sabbath, Vanson & Babylon. All crafted were signed by Ozzy.
I’m not dead set on selling but wanting to test the water so if you’re serious feel free to shoot me a message. Retail was £2340.
Anyone know if it’s possible or likely that he does a send in or paid autographs? I really want the full set, what a day it was!
Love modern tech so can post this from a plane. but a 9 hour flight perfect to remeber what an event a year ago we saw and for those of us lucky enough, to attend !!
