OZZY OSBOURNE On 95.5 KLOS's 'Mark And Brian' Show; Audio Available

September 10, 2009

Legendary heavy metal singer Ozzy Osbourne was interviewed yesterday (Wednesday, September 9) on the "Mark And Brian" show on the Los Angeles radio station 95.5 KLOS. You can now listen to the chat using the audio player below.

Ozzy Osbourne will be opening and closing the second annual Sunset Strip Music Festival (SSMF),which is being held September 10-12. The three-day festival will kick off when Ozzy is honored at a tribute event today (Thursday, September 10) at the House of Blues and then Ozzy will perform the festival's final set Saturday, September 12. That's when, for the first time ever, the Sunset Strip (between Doheny Drive and San Vicente Blvd.) will be closed to host two concert stages. KORN, PEPPER, THE DONNAS and KOTTONMOUTH KINGS are among the 40 acts performing throughout the day.

Ozzy's appearance will mark his first full performance on the Sunset Strip in almost 40 years and his first ever as a solo artist. Back in 1970, BLACK SABBATH performed a five-night stand (November 11-15) at the legendary Whisky A Go-Go as part of their first U.S. tour.

Speaking to the Los Angeles Times on Tuesday, Osbourne waxed sentimental about those early days on the Strip. "It was like a different world," he said. "I remember seeing hippies on every corner, just trying to catch the vibes. For us English guys, it was like landing in some beautiful paradise. It was the start of my love for L.A."

Osbourne is currently finishing a new album in his home studio. "It's still heavy but it's not all dark," he said. "At this stage, I can experiment." He isn't sure what he'll play Saturday night but he insists there won't be any SABBATH.
