I was doing security once at OzzFest and I walked around the corner and ran right into Ozzy. I just started crying, I've been a fan of his since the 70's. He was very cool about it, he held my arm and talked to me for a while. It was great.
At NYCC 2017, Mark Hamill basically popped out from one of the dividers in the autograph area from the backstage area and started taking pics with people. I nearly had a heart attack. While I'm not that knowledgable about much of Ozzy's music, I will admit meeting him would be a trip.
He was almost speachless when he met Paul McCartney, it's on RUclips, so he probably totally understood. What a great experience. I usually just leave them all alone to avoid things like that happening but you practically bumped right into him by accident, ha. That is great.
He's right there, the Ward/Butler combo was one of THE most underrated rhythm sections in history. Iommi is the "God of Riff". It's hard to top Sabbath, when it comes to greatest metal bands....they basically created the genre. The darkness, the anti-rock star image, scaring the parents, ALL OF IT. Even their name, "Black Sabbath"....who has a better name in metal history?
I love Zep but when it comes to early metal I think we know who the clear winner is. Sabbath jump started a whole new genre with a single riff and then did things darker and deeper than ever before. Zep just jacked other artists' songs in their early days, gave them a slightly heavier edge, and then occasionally dabbled in things that could be considered metal here and there.
@@davedmk Dazed and Confused is Darker than anything Sabbath ever did and it was out before they existed. Zep was Metal before Sabbath thought about it. Sabbath got the Idea from Zep. Sabbath doesn't even palm mute and they did catch up to the drums playing the guitar riff until later. Everything that's metal came from Zep except for wearing black, talking about the devil, and light gauge strings. If you think that's all there is to metal I can see how you got confused.
His voice impression of Ozzy wasnt the best (not quite British enough), but when he did Ozzy's onstage mannerism, he absolutely nailed it. 100 out of 100. Great story Henry.
@Rowan Melton To outsiders, it's mostly all the same. Similar to how many British people act like there's one defined "American" accent when you can have 3+ in the same city, let alone the entire country.
I met Ozzy in the late 80’s when I was working at a store in LA as a kid. He was so nice and down to earth. I told him what Randy meant to me. He responded by telling me about the Randy Rhoads tribute album that was going to be released in the not too distant future.
He can play bitter damaged characters. Watch the movie "He Never Died." I guess just seeing his natural attitude is more fun? Not sure what comic book character he'd fit though normally.
....as i am an Ozzy fan for ages, it's sooo nice to hear Henry loves him. As i respect HR more and more as he becomes an older and more or less milder and less angry hahaha
He got mouthy with me at a hotel one night, so i had to slap him around a little, put him in line so to speak. Ended up with lifetime passes to all his shows, he's a great guy once you slap the cockyness outa him😡👊🏻
Hellwyck Black Sabbath did change my life, but so did The Beatles, The Who, The Kinks, Pink Floyd, Bob Dylan, Simon and Garfunkel, Led Zeppelin, Velvet Underground, The Beach Boys, and so many others.
Craig Colby Me too man...!!! The distorted opening bass line with it's raw sound/tone totally changed my world.... I was about 10.... 40 years later Sabbath is STILL my fave band!
Bill Ward was the ultimate percussionist. He had as many personal issues as he was great. Geezer plays bass like God. Tony on guitar and you have the founders of metal.
Back in the day, I actually got to meet Tony and Geezer after a gig. No meet and greet in those days. Just me and the two of them at the stage door. Can you imagine?
Holy shit i just realized it was iron man that got me into metal. I had thought it was megadeth but it was in my dads shop even younger that i heard sabbath. This actually brought back a suppressed memory. Wow
What an amazing show. Do you remember there year? '96? Peak Rollins Band, October Rust era Type O and late 90s Ozzy? Jesus christ. What a gig. Don't make gigs like that anymore.
King David COOL!!! The real Sabbath!! So cool! I am jealous. Tell me, what were Ronnie Jame Dio and Vinnie Appiece like in real life? Sad that Dio and Geoff Nichols passed. The real Sabbath.
Henry Rollins looks like this genetic reject from some ancient branch of humanity. You'd think he would be dumb as a box of hammers but he is truly a talented man. I've enjoyed hearing him speak, sing and acting...He Never Died was a very under appreciated gem. Hearing this story, most accurate stage impersonation ever of Ozzy...he just forgot the buckets of water.
for those who seem to be confused or clueless, henry is a humorist, an ex-punk vocalist who tells anecdotal stories for everyone's amusement, about the rock world. pretty cool stuff.
best part... god I wish I had one of my ozzy records here so he could sign mine too, hey kid can I borrow that cool gold ink marker. gotta love guys in bands who still look at other people in bands as fan boys
What he says about Ozzy's crowds is so true. I saw Ozzy around that time and the crowd went absolutely crazy when he took the stage. And Black Sabbath is the greatest metal band in history.
Lived in a small town in West Texas called Odessa for about my first 17 years. I got a Panasonic ball radio in 1974. All they played was the top 40 pop music 24/7. One Friday night I was scrolling the dial and Odessa College played heavy metal from 9 to midnight on Friday night and Saturday night. Imagine going from ABBA Neil Sedaka and Elton John straight into Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath and Jefferson Airplane which they never played on the radio. The year is 1973 I still remember it like yesterday when I found heavy metal totally blew me away. My first heavy metal album that I bought with my money was Aerosmith Get Your Wings. I would play that album over and over and over until I memorize the words to all the songs. I understand exactly what Henry felt. Now I'm 60 and it's just as good today as it ever was.
Ozzy's cigar phase. Started with one in the evening and escalated to chainsmoking the things until he literally couldn't breathe anymore. The poor guy can't do anything in moderation, it's like he was born to be an addict.
Nicest guy in sabbath was Bill Ward Hes the kind of guy to ask everyone in line for autographs a personal question, because he actually did Shame what they did to him
I really like Henry... fascinating guy, intelligent, interesting, funny. I've heard countless people say that Ozzy is a good guy, and very down to earth.
People can make fun of Ozzy and hate on him all they want. They're are not many musicians that have the influence or longevity he has had. There will never be another like him😝🤘 🔥
I wasn't too familiar with Henry Rollins,'till Liar song came out,then saw Henry on Joe Rogan podcast,He's very interesting dude,Master of Reality is the album,that brought me closer to Black Sabbath
@@nathandavidhallI did not know that. And all this time I thought it was Ozzy. You'd think right? Cause he has that extroverted personality like Vince Neil
My family came to Australia, from Aston/Birmingham. My pop (Grandfather), when I would talk to him, reminds me so much of Black Sabbath. It's not just the accent, although it's a big part. It's the working class mentality those men have from growing up in that part of England. The phrase "We work hard, and we play hard" takes on a whole new meaning when I meet people from that time and place. Working in those factories, back when the HP Sauce factory was still there........ I have a couple of Aston Villa hoodies I wear, and now that's it winter, I'll be rocking them again. They are a bit tattered. But when I throw them on, I feel the energy of Ozzy/Iommi/Butler/Ward coursing threw my veins..... I walk just a little bit taller.... Just another freak in the freak kingdom.... Living The Dream.
I did not know he was stand up too. I love his music and now his comedy. What a genius. Also, i know the feel, I've jad a meet and greet with Ozzy in 2013 here in Brazin, in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais and I froze, I was so awestruck I just raised my hand and said "Hi... Hi, Ozzy". And he hugged me and messed with my hair and said I should calm down and smile for the cameras. Ozzy is the greatest.
As a fellow Brummie and having been brought up in Witton and Aston and less than a mile from Ozzy’s house, this video makes me very proud… The area was very industrial and quite impoverished in the 1960’s… The people from that area at that particular time, are very humble (like the rest of Sabbath and never really had any great expectations…However, it’s great seeing local lads like Black Sabbath (and The Move and the Moody Blues) do really well… Up the Villa!
I saw Ozzy first time in 1978 Never say die tour Manchester appollo England. Was right at the front and only a few feet away from him and the band. Never forgotten it. And wish I had a time machine to go back. Great story thanks .
Yeah, Sabbath was awesome. Ozzy is great. But being a gen-Xer, hearing Rollins Band’s The End of Silence changed my life. Saw a few spoken word shows, saw Rollins Band play a few times, and Henry is always excellent. And he always responds to emails; I’ve written him a few times and he always responds within like a day. Best guy ever and will always be an inspiration to me.
Ozzy all tho has had rough years is easily the most consistent when it comes to personality, as far as I know Ozzy has only ever showed pure love and support to his fans ❤
The way he tells the story of him and his buddy getting robbed at gunpoint in LA yrs ago..and his friend being killed is stunning...he's a force of nature is Rollins.

Awesome! Sounds like you weren't expecting it, and just got overwhelmed. I've no idea how I would react, could be the same as you \m/

If you ever seen Ozzy live, you’d know how accurate Henry’s imitation is. That’s exactly what Ozzy does on stage.
Forgot the headbanging claps lol
Yup
I have once in St. Louis at the Riverport and yup pretty damn close imitation and I loved every second of it
@@jimforehand7571 been to many a show there. Ozzfest. GnR riot to name a couple
@@Fnberg744 hell yeah, I've only been there that 1 time for ozzfest the year he released black rain album

Zep did it first and better.

This made me feel so happy for Henry. It’s like hearing a kid talking about his first trip to a toy store. No one deserves more... big ups.
I'm glad one of his heroes ozzy wasn't mean to him
Broto theWilliams Ozzy is pretty much always nice he’s awesome
Sometimes he looked like Jim Carrey after some extra Workouts in the Gym
His voice impression of Ozzy wasnt the best (not quite British enough), but when he did Ozzy's onstage mannerism, he absolutely nailed it. 100 out of 100. Great story Henry.

@Rowan Melton stfu
@Seth Belfort ok
Brummie isn't quite English enough haha
He wasn’t really trying to accurately do Ozzys voice
I met Ozzy in the late 80’s when I was working at a store in LA as a kid. He was so nice and down to earth. I told him what Randy meant to me. He responded by telling me about the Randy Rhoads tribute album that was going to be released in the not too distant future.
That's Ozzys best album
Why hasnt henry rollins played The Punisher yet?
He can play bitter damaged characters. Watch the movie "He Never Died." I guess just seeing his natural attitude is more fun? Not sure what comic book character he'd fit though normally.
Rollins says himself he's not much of an actor.
That... would be perfect.
genius
That’s a great point
....as i am an Ozzy fan for ages, it's sooo nice to hear Henry loves him. As i respect HR more and more as he becomes an older and more or less milder and less angry hahaha
kinda the same here. I won't say I respect him more cause I always like Rollins but he damn sure has mellowed out so much over the years.
Henry is brilliant. His music rocks and his lectures are incredible. It just flows out of him. Very humble. Wouldn't want to mess with him either.
Richard Binder Do not forget his photography and writing
Yeah pissing him isn't a good idea bc he takes no shit from anybody
He got mouthy with me at a hotel one night, so i had to slap him around a little, put him in line so to speak. Ended up with lifetime passes to all his shows, he's a great guy once you slap the cockyness outa him😡👊🏻
@@bigfan9805 really? No way! You slapped Henry Rollins?? Wow!!
@@charlenepickett6414 you should really stop believing everything you hear
"doesn't really know where he is.... Rock n Roll!" lolol
Hearing "Sweet Leaf" while smoking weed, at the age of 16, changed my life.
Bro their enyire early catalog is my latest favorite music to smoke pot to.
Yep, it was Sweet Leaf really hit home with me.
Bruh deadass
For sure bro
vol 4 is awesome as well under the sun is my favourite
If hearing Sabbath didn't change your life, you've been asleep at the switch.
+Will Gold Hearing Deep Purple and Joe Walsh changed mine
Yes sir! Changed the way I played guitar too! The riffs, man!
Hellwyck Black Sabbath did change my life, but so did The Beatles, The Who, The Kinks, Pink Floyd, Bob Dylan, Simon and Garfunkel, Led Zeppelin, Velvet Underground, The Beach Boys, and so many others.
Craig Colby Me too man...!!! The distorted opening bass line with it's raw sound/tone totally changed my world.... I was about 10.... 40 years later Sabbath is STILL my fave band!
Very true. That ascending bass line in after forever stretches my brain everytime
Bill Ward was the ultimate percussionist. He had as many personal issues as he was great. Geezer plays bass like God. Tony on guitar and you have the founders of metal.
Back in the day, I actually got to meet Tony and Geezer after a gig. No meet and greet in those days. Just me and the two of them at the stage door. Can you imagine?
His OZZY impression is way too understandable.
It's simple: It's impossible to dislike Ozzy.
He may have called it "spoken word" but Rollins is a great standup comedian. He has excellent delivery, timing, and great stories!
Black Sabbath are easily one of the best and most influential rock bands ever, no need discussion..They were awesome beyond words!!
This is about how I felt when I interviewed Rollins for a local paper. Fan boying out the entire time.
2004 Ozzfest in Belgium... My first concert ever...Ozzy is a legend!
Welcome... Even only just begun and better yet and still...
You have youth on your side 😜
Holy shit i just realized it was iron man that got me into metal. I had thought it was megadeth but it was in my dads shop even younger that i heard sabbath. This actually brought back a suppressed memory. Wow
That Ozzy on stage impression is 100% accurate
I SAW THIS SHOW HENRY IS TALKING ABOUT. IT WAS AT TROPICANA FIELD IN ST.PETE FLORIDA, TYPE O NEGATIVE ALSO PLAYED. GREAT SHOW!!!!
I'd like to have watched Henry and Petah hang out.
I was also there I remember ozzy screaming let's get crazy and the whole venue rushing the stage it was such a great time
What an amazing show. Do you remember there year? '96? Peak Rollins Band, October Rust era Type O and late 90s Ozzy? Jesus christ. What a gig. Don't make gigs like that anymore.
Saw Ozzy in the UK 1980 with RR, Kerslake and Daisley.
We couldn't get tickets.
They were small venues and sold out quick!!!
You had to queue for tickets then.
I couldn't get there.
They were £2-.
ive had the pleasure of hanging with BLACK SABBATH.................THE ORIGINAL BLACK SABBATH, awesome real gentlemen
King David what was so awesome about them?
Jealous as fuck if it's true
+Greg Dahlen they changed the world of rock, whats not awesome about them
+ToxicDestruction Let me know when you're jealous
King David COOL!!! The real Sabbath!! So cool! I am jealous. Tell me, what were Ronnie Jame Dio and Vinnie Appiece like in real life? Sad that Dio and Geoff Nichols passed. The real Sabbath.
"doesn't know where he is" lol, thats Ozzy.
Was most probably high.
Ozzy doesn't know WHO he is.
Ozzy didn't care where he was. (As long as he didn't miss his own concert.)
Anyone remember that time Ozzy smiled at Juliya from FUSE? A smile made her cry.
Rock n Roll
MISTRESS JULIYA! Love her Type O Negative interviews.

@@patrickmccutcheon8860 my friend who loves Heavy Metal doesn't consider them Metal. I think he's fucking nuts lol
@@patrickmccutcheon8860 No they didn't. That was Zep.
@Deplorable Cat They are heavier than Sabbath. Sabbath admitted to copying Zep's sound. Read up on this.

Get your wings is an amazing album. My fav by the band. Lord of the thighs and Spaced were my dad and my faves
Being in a band that has opened soooooo many shows, Henry is spot on about being the opening act. His Ozzy impression is dead on as well.
Ozzy's cigar phase. Started with one in the evening and escalated to chainsmoking the things until he literally couldn't breathe anymore. The poor guy can't do anything in moderation, it's like he was born to be an addict.
You are one hard working man. You earned that. Keep it heavy, Henry.
Both Ozzy and Henry Rollins seem like genuinely cool dudes!
Nicest guy in sabbath was Bill Ward
Hes the kind of guy to ask everyone in line for autographs a personal question, because he actually did
Shame what they did to him
The Anti Christ nice edgy name, fuckface
@The Anti Christ and who the fuck says "soyboy" hahahahhaha damn, how old are you?
No one has original comments these days you’ve gotta have a really frail sense of masculinity to say shit like that lmfao.
What did they do to him?

Love Henry's stand up stuff. He's a fucking great storyteller
Geez, Butler was perhaps the reason I got started playing bass when I was 10. Damn fine music
Right, and a great lyric writer as well
I could listen to him all day and never get tired.
I wasn't too familiar with Henry Rollins,'till Liar song came out,then saw Henry on Joe Rogan podcast,He's very interesting dude,Master of Reality is the album,that brought me closer to Black Sabbath

Also wrote nearly all the lyrics for sabbath
@@nathandavidhallI did not know that. And all this time I thought it was Ozzy. You'd think right? Cause he has that extroverted personality like Vince Neil
Love that he can fan boy like us. Nice man should be written on his shirt. Lol
I could listen to Henry just tell stories for hours.
I discovered Black Sabbath in1976-77 somewhere in there it was one of four 8 tracks I bought Paranoid awesome album
I wish I loved hearing Henry Rollins talk as much as he does.
say what you want about Rollins. The guy can tell a great story. Keeps you interested.
Henry came out to us in Qatar many years back.... he was genuine as hell back then. Really nice guy.
Thanks for your visit Sir!
doesn't tell a single joke yet the audience is in hysterics.
jon glaser He appears a bit stupid.
jon glaser You probably won't understand if you're under 42.
Jim Adams Henry Rollins is a very funny dude. He needs to do more of these shows.
Reggae Fan Agreed!
He's got the gift of gab. He can relate to people. What's cooler than that
whoever said "never meet your heroes" never met any _real_ heroes like Henry did.
Exactly ! :)
I love how much of a humble fan type dude he is. He's like a fuckin 20 year old kid tellin a story it's great
The greatest musicians are always great fans too!!

Wow. You're interpretation of reality must keep you thoroughly entertained
Henry Rollins is a great storyteller, as this video shows. His enthusiasm is infectious.
It was a great night when I saw Sabbath live at Ozzfest. Original band members, I am fortunate enough to have been there.
The first time I saw Sabbath was in 1970 and now I’m 70, went to many Sabbath, Ozzy and OZZfest shows over the years.
Love Henry Rollins. Dude is pure honesty.
Henry Rollins can pull off “geek” about as well as I can pull off Henry Rollins :)
This man has the voice of a video game announcer. Everything he says is just in all caps, bold, and with reverb

Best guy ever and will always be an inspiration to me.
So, he finally likes something. Amazing.
frank bonini wow I’ll have to check that out.
Right? Rollins is a pseudointellectual dipshit who isn't even the best frontman of Black Flag.
Henry is one of the most fascinating people I have ever seen, read, watched.......good stuff.....
As much as Henry Rollins is a pro musician himself, he's also one of the best storytellers around
Henry Rollings is one of the greatest story tellers in history
This is fucking great.
I love it so much that Henry is a total fan boy, not only for Ozzy and Black Sabbath but a lot of artists.
Oh my god! He said it!!! 6:04!
It’s Rollin’ time
You can tell Henry is s beast by the way he wraps the cord and holds the mic in a death grip....
He is so much fun. Hard to imagine black flag singer for a comedian show but it's soooo good
+Eve Nam It's not a comedy show, he's just entertaining.
I don't think anyone could ever forget ozzy he just a character an pioneer of metal an hard rock
Ozzy's a Brummie, someone who comes from Birmingham in the UK. Most down to earth people you could meet, like Scousers, Glaswegians and Geordies.
Henry's a freaking treasure! And so Is Ozzy.
That EnormoDome line went totally missed, who is this audience!
I cant wait for this summer, I hope to be able to afford the meet an greet with Ozzy. I plan on bringing his auto biography to hopefully get signed.
Ive seen early flyers to promote Sabbaths 1st tour. They read,"Black Sabbath" Makes Zeppelin sound like a kindergarten house band! Lol
Awesome storytelling Henry. Cool.
Seeing hardcore Henry Rollins go totally fanboy is awesome!
Ozzy all tho has had rough years is easily the most consistent when it comes to personality, as far as I know Ozzy has only ever showed pure love and support to his fans ❤
Black Sabbath had influenced so many. Even Seattle grunge bands.
thx u henry for telling ozzy with so funny😂😂😂i luv it
"greatest rhythm section in rock & roll is Bill Ward and Geezer Butler"
--say it loud for the people in the back--
The way he tells the story of him and his buddy getting robbed at gunpoint in LA yrs ago..and his friend being killed is stunning...he's a force of nature is Rollins.
This is so cute 😂
I was around 15 when I got a Bass guitar & "Iron Man" was the first song I learned.
3:50 Most accurate Ozzy impression ever.
This tape is priceless, the rocky story is amazing.
Very cool
I would feel the same way meeting Henry. Lol - a huge fanboy and just being in awe :D
