FYI:

OZZfest 2004 Is Looking For Raw Talent;
Auditions To Take Place From Coast To Coast

It’s the rock & roll opportunity of a lifetime:  Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne are looking for the next great band to rock the OZZfest 2004 main-stage alongside Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Slayer and more.

Auditions will be held coast-to-coast to find eight unsigned, undiscovered bands to take part in a final competition yielding one lucky winner.  Not only will they share the same stage with rock legends, but they’ll also participate in a nationally televised performance straight from OZZfest 2004.  In addition, the winning band will be awarded a coveted slot on the second stage at OZZfest 2005 as well as free music equipment and cash prizes.

Do you think you’ve got what it takes to rock the masses at
OZZfest?   Prove it!   The audition hotline is: (800) 688-5251 for all the detailed info.

In-person auditions will be held in Los Angeles on June 11th and
New York on June 18th.

Stay tuned to www.ozzfest.com for further updates. May the best band win.

It's about time!!!!!!!!!!!  If I see another RnB singer get labeled "American Idol"  I'm gonna puke!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bout time somebody got something together for the real talent.

Be nice if Ozz can bring back the rock!

"American Idol"!?  What a crock of doodoo!!  They need to name it for what it is, call it "Some Americans Idol".  Cause I don't know of one person I know who likes or listens to any of that crap or the people who have won it.  And I know alot of people!  Even my young teen cousins think it is a crock!  

I will say this though, William Hung rules!!!!!!!!!!

A friend of a friend's band (Unearth) is playing Ozzfest, and I was amused to find out that the bands have to pay THOUSANDS of dollars to be on the bill. I'm sure it all makes sense somehow, but  I found it a bit strange.
