<<"Talked to Ozzy today. There’s still a lot of stuff up in the air about this summer’s Ozzfest here–the only other confirmed acts are Snot and Sevendust for the second stage, and he didn’t know whether he’d be playing as Sabbath or solo or both, but his band willbeZakk Wylde, Mike Inez, and Randy Castillo. He’s working on some songs with Tony Iommi now that may be bonus tracks for the live Sabbath concert album taken from the second Birmingham show Dec. 5. He’s goin to Australia and Japan Feb.12-Mar.5, then Europe, and here starting July 5 for so far only about 10 major city shows but more may be added." "Joe is out. It’s nothing personal, Ozzy said he just wants to work with Zakk again.">> *Katie <A HREF="http://members.aol.com/Dreams126/oz.html"> *My Ozzy Osbourne Tribute*</A>

Well, personally I have not heard any *Official* word from Ozzy’s people one way or another to confirm or deny this. However, there are also rumors circulating which have originated from quite reliable sources to the contrary, which has been mentioned in other threads. And as far as I know, the Australian concerts are still on, but they may not actually be a part of Ozzfest.. Also, keep in mind that sometimes radio stations don’t always have the latest accurate information. It all depends on the DJ’s source. ~Suzanne http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Lounge/6255/

The station said Metal Edge said it. But who knows. We’ll see what happens. Fred
Response:
Just heard from WSOU radio station that there will be no Ozzfest this year. They said he doesn’t want to tour this year. But isn’t Ozzy touring Australia now. Or is that cancelled as well. Maybe Ozzy will put out a solo album because Ozzy has the old band back and than tour solo. 
Which I prefer. Anyone with more info., please post it. Fred
