OK today is another gratuitous cat photo. I’m still recovering from last night, the second part of the heavy metal double header. This getting old thing sucks, two nights where I get back in the early hours and I’m done.
Last night was the prince of darkness himself, Ozzy Osbourne, at the Tacoma Dome. For a 62 year old who has done enough booze and drugs to have killed anyone other than Keith Richard, he put on a good show. I was warned before hand by a friend that we could be seeing good Ozzy or crappy Ozzy who can’t get through a full set. Last night we got good Ozzy.
A very different concert than Motorhead on Friday night, a huge venue and not nearly as loud. Ozzy still brought it, put on a great show and was wonderfully supported by Slash. Great stage craft, looked good in a crucifix covered suit and again they played the songs everyone came to hear.
Fun couple of nights of concerts. Huge contrasts in the staging and venue, but both put in good, if radically different shows.
Time for a Superbowl party, I wonder if Rob’s got somewhere I can sleep…
