Metal

The first and last time I was privileged to see Ozzy perform, it was at VoodooFest 2015. I'll never forget that incredible show, video does not at all do it justice. He sounds like shit in this particular video (not mine), but he sounded great in person.

Ozzy--on stage with Geezer Butler, Tom Morello, and Slash--plays all the hits. It's Halloween night, it's raining and getting worse throughout the show as a massive thunderstorm rolls in. Ozzy's howling is punctuated by lightning and thunder as though God had also decided to join in. I'm moshing in the mud pit, having the time of my life, drunk on contraband rum. The festival was canceled for flooding the next day and i wasn't even mad because nothing was going to top that night's show.

Rest well, prince of darkness.
