OZZY OSBOURNE Schedules U.K. In-Store Appearances
June 18, 2010Ozzy Osbourne has scheduled the following U.K. signing sessions:
June 25 - HMV - London (Oxford Street) at 6 p.m.
June 26 - HMV - Birmingham (High Street) at 1 p.m.
According to Classic Rock, fans at both events will be invited to put their heads through life-size cut-outs of Ozzy and scream at full throttle. On top of this, the first 400 fans to turn up from 8 a.m. at the Birmingham in-store will get free tickets for Ozzy's show at the Town Hall in the city that same night.
Ahead of the June 22 release of his new album, "Scream", via Epic Records, Ozzy will once again take over the Sunset Strip with two record-release events Sunday, June 20. That afternoon, the rock icon will host an in-store signing at Amoeba Music on Sunset Blvd. in Hollywood, California. Later that night, some lucky fans will join Ozzy for a private record-release playback and rare club performance down Sunset Blvd. at the House Of Blues.
Ozzy will sign copies of his new "Scream" CD at Amoeba from 5 to 8 p.m. and the first 600 fans in line who purchase a copy will also receive a free ticket to that night's 10 p.m. House of Blues performance.
Please note: The in-store signing is limited to the first 800 fans and there are no lineups prior to 3 p.m.

OZZY OSBOURNE filmed a video for his new single, "Let Me Hear You Scream", last month with renowned Swedish director Jonas Åkerlund, who has previously worked with METALLICA, SATYRICON, RAMMSTEIN, MADONNA and THE PRODIGY, among others. According to RollingStone.com, fans should expect the clip to be "an over-the-top spectacle . . . replete with fake blood and giant injectable needles."
"Let Me Hear You Scream" had its world premiere, during a prison riot scene, on "CSI: NY" on April 14 on the CBS television network.
The multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning Rock and Roll Hall of Famer recorded most of "Scream" at his Los Angeles home studio, The Bunker, and co-wrote all the songs, primarily with Churko. Notably, the album marks the first appearance of Ozzy's new guitar player, Gus G. (FIREWIND, ex-DREAM EVIL, ARCH ENEMY). Ozzy's band also features bassist Rob "Blasko" Nicholson, drummer Tommy Clufetos (ex-ROB ZOMBIE, ALICE COOPER) and keyboardist Adam Wakeman.
Ozzy will embark on an 18-month world tour in support of "Scream", which will include six Ozzfest dates in August.
OZZY OSBOURNE will guest on the nationally syndicated radio show "Rockline" with host Bob Coburn on Monday, June 21 at 8:30 p.m. PT / 11:30 p.m. ET. Fans are encouraged to speak with Ozzy by calling 1-800-344-ROCK (7625).
