You don't like Rob Halford? Do you mean singing Sabbath's songs or you just don't like him in general?

I find his voice annoying, especially on that version of supernaut andy posted a while ago.

I never heard it. But anyway did you hear about the gig Sabbath just did in England?

The secret one?

Yeah I think so it was just a small one. Anyhoo apparently during Into The Void Ozzy started singing a verse from Electric Funeral.

lol, i wonder if that was a mistake or not...

You hate Halford :eek:

[QUOTE=shadow_stalker]lol, i wonder if that was a mistake or not...[/QUOTE]

It was, apparently Geezer just started laughing and Iommi had this look on his face that said "What the fuk are you doing?"

[QUOTE=TSASI]You hate Halford :eek:[/QUOTE]

Don't hare him, hate his vocal style, that annoying high pitched thing pisses me off.

[QUOTE=rippa32]It was, apparently Geezer just started laughing and Iommi had this look on his face that said "What the fuk are you doing?"[/QUOTE]

:lol: At least he did it here and not at download. But then again Iommi always has that expression on his face.

lol I suppose. I once heard a story about some guy who said Iommi looks Italian, and Iommi knocked him out.

I wouldn't put it psat him.

Anyone know the names of the rhythm guitarist and saxaphone player that played for sabbath during the earth days?

No do you? oh and I thought they only played for polka tulk and then left before the name change.

I've got no idea, I could look it up though.

FunFact: Ozzy didn't play harmonica on Never Say Die!, someone else did. If anyone has the cd and the notes credit Ozz for the harmonica they're wrong. :)

I came about <---> that close to going to the secret show, but I wasn't allowed because it was 4 days before my Physics AS.

[SIZE=7]Hey look, its another Size 7 post about our covers![/SIZE]

'sup.

Ok...we still haven't really gotten our arses in gear for this, I'm guessing that I'm being left to choose the song(s) so...we'll rip-off the Iron Maiden thread and do about 4 or 5.

Sound good?

If any of you guys want to do drums/vocals post here quick, otherwise I'll do them (drums) on Cubase when I go back to school in about a weeks time.

Songs, in order.

Heaven and Hell/Paranoid ( :eek: )
NIB
Iron Man
The Warning (only a small chunk of it)

So there we have it.

I think i_am_jimmy_page is doing guitars, but if anyone of you more regular folk want to do it then that should be alright I guess...

Anyway, discuss.

Wow.

Hey does anyone know if Black Sabbath will play at Live 8 like they did with Live Aid?

[QUOTE=TSASI][url]http://guitargeek.com/rigview/476/[/url]

Wow.[/QUOTE]

I have no idea what all that means but it looks complicated...

[QUOTE=rippa32]No do you? oh and I thought they only played for polka tulk and then left before the name change.[/QUOTE]

Im not really sure when they played it says their names in either the reunion album cover or their old manager says it on the interview with him on vol 1 dvd.

Have you seen ozzy from that era? His hair is hilarious.

[QUOTE=rippa32]Whats wrong with Gillans voice?[/QUOTE]
I think that it doesn't match with sabbath, and [I]Born again [/I] wasn't to good because of it.

But he is awsome with Deep Purple

How is Iommi's solo stuff? Any good?

Well Iv only heard samples of the Iommi album which is alright but nothing compared to sabbath and it sounds completely different too, his new one with Glenn Hughes should be good though.

Hey I found Seventh Star on vinyl for A$20 on ebay. Do ya reckon it would be worth it?

^It might be worth it. I'm not too sure.

[QUOTE=rippa32]Hey does anyone know if Black Sabbath will play at Live 8 like they did with Live Aid?[/QUOTE]
that would be pretty cool...

It would, although they would only play Paranoid and Iron Man.

Maybe play war pigs.

[QUOTE]Former Black Sabbath bassist Neil Murray will be having surgery next
month for carpal tunnel syndrome. Tony Iommi had the same thing some
years ago, had the operation, and came through it fine - so here's to
hoping all goes well for Mr. Murray.

Here's something Neil wrote himself about the situation:

M3 bassist Neil Murray (ex-WHITESNAKE, BLACK SABBATH) will be out of
action during July as he has to have an operation on his left wrist
for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, which affects the movement in his
fingers. He will be temporarily replaced for M3's festival
appearance at Open Air Hamburg Harley Days Festival on July 16 by
David Levy, who has worked with M3 guitarists Bernie Marsden and
Micky Moody (both ex-WHITESNAKE) many times before. Neil should be
back playing in the QUEEN musical "We Will Rock You" by the
beginning of August and will return for the M3 "classic WHITESNAKE"
gigs in Bildein (Austria) and Heidenheim (Germany) on August 26 and
August 27, respectively. [/QUOTE]

Never really knew any of the guys work, but get well soon all the same.

He played on the TYR album and Forbidden I think. You have TYR dont you? Speaking of TYR does anyone know how to pronounce it?

Tee-err.

Think ''Tor'', but with two E's in the middle.

I just say T Y R.

I'm back at school on Monday, I want to know which songs you guys want to cover for the comp, I'm open to anything I really don't mind. I'll program the drums on Cubase.

I just say it as T Y R also.

I have TYR but dont like it so i dont listen to it much.

Its probably the best Martin-era MkI album.

I was thinking yuo could cover TV Crimes. That has one awesome riff and the bass is some of the best ive heard out of Geezer.

I would like to see Solitude done. I just personally think it's an awesome song.

In other news, I have defeated Andy in the battle of the amps. I remember when he posted a while back and said his amp went to 12, well I noticed mine goes to 15. Spinal Tap'd.

[QUOTE=Lord Brummington]Its probably the best Martin-era MkI album.[/QUOTE]
Really? Someone told me it was really bad, the only Martin album I have is [I]Headless Cross[/I]

[QUOTE=Lord Brummington]Its probably the best Martin-era MkI album.[/QUOTE]

I think its pretty **** terrible, headless cross owns it in everyway (in my god-like opinion)

How many songs you guys actually doing?

Also i don't believe you have an amp that goes to 15.

Josh - :cool:

stalker - you fayle at being a god and its Over the Mountain.

white heat - TYR is my personal fav. from the MkI Martin era, Headless Cross was a bit cheesy in some places whereas TYR is brilliance right through. Kinda power-metal-ish aswell, which is what I like.

Can any of you guys sing?
