I'm back from Europe, so I'll be able to get some album reviews posted that I had hoped to post before my trip. The biggest concert announcement in a while is the first North American dates for Ozzy Osbourne in support of his Scream album, including a date at the Target Center in Minneapolis on Sunday, December 12. This is his first tour here with new guitarist Gus G who, if you saw him when his band Firewind opened for Epica at Station 4 in St. Paul a couple years ago, can shred like a monster. Contrary to other reports, general ticket sales for most of these shows begins on Saturday, September 18 (where information is currently available). There will also be various VIP ticket packages that go on sale as early as this Monday, September 13. Included in these initial dates is a show at the Target Center in Minneapolis; more dates will be announced soon. The support band for all shows will be Halford, whose new IV - Made Of Metal album will be released in North America on September 28. October 5 will see the release of the Tour Edition of Scream, which will include seven bonus tracks, including unreleased and live songs.
