I didn't watch much of the Grammys the other night, for obvious reasons. When the voice-over girl is promoting artists and performances coming up and NOTHING interests you, well, you tend to tune out. That being said, I did want to see Ozzy onstage doing whatever he was going to do.
My first thought was "How is he ever going to tour"? I mean, he's been frail for a while, but he's looking more and more retirement ready, as opposed to stage ready.
Let me just say that Ozzy has played a huge role in my life and was the first concert I went to back in the day. I saw the last tour and he seemed like a shell of himself on stage. Thankfully, his band made up for a lot of his shortcomings.
I'll also be honest with this, I can't wait to hear his new record. So far, what I've heard, I really like. He's put together some monster musicians and has released some solid songs off the 'Ordinary Man' release. But, come on, Ozz. Sunday night it didn't look like he could make it across the Grammy stage, let along a full-blown tour!
I'd hate to say it, but Ozzy needs to do what he does best ...record albums and do reality TV. "Ozzy and Jack's World Detour" was an excellent show to watch.
