True to the music. The People's Band, and a genuine human being. We are fortunate for BLS. Thanks Zakk, and can't thank you enough for your music, your unwavering commitment, and for continuing to give us the baddest-assed Rock n' Roll made today!
I can confirm how cool Zakk is. At one of the Ozzfests, Zakk was at one of the signing/meet Booths. My girlfriend was having back problems, so she was going around in a wheelchair. She was extremely self conscious about it. We were third in line, when she came up to say hi, he hopped over the table and gave her a huge hug from behind. Got a pic and after that, she was in heaven. Kept calling Zakk her other boyfriend and kept mentioning how nice he smelled.
as much as zakk jokes around and avoids questions ( like at the beginning of this vid), i think he is deeply aware of how blessed he is.. so to see someone in a wheelchair.. you know
Yeah, good thing Zakk has a great personality. Cause these guys definitely don't. And does anyone find it weird that Jim is asking about the ins and outs of alcoholism like he forgot that his claims he's a recovering alcoholic. Fake asshole makes me sick.
Always love Zakk's interviews. He's got old school stories and jokes. His attitude about sobriety has helped me as well. Just having the mind set of "that's it, no more" has helped me rely on myself instead of others. (I have 1 year and 5 months on the wagon now too) Always enjoy video's with Zakk. Thanks Jim and Sam!
"If you don't like losing, then you ain't gonna lose." A lot of wisdom in that phrase. It should be written down as one of Zakk Wylde's Ten Commandments.
Back in the day, when we where both young men we would both frequent the same bar. It was a little hole in the wall called The Valencia Room and then later it was changed to Winston's Pub. He would usually come in with his manager but other times he would show up with some of his friends from Hollywood. This was back before Ozzy when he was clean cut or relatively so anyways. Sometimes he would come in with the bassist from the band White Lion and others from various hairbands. It wasn't uncommon on a weekend night for him and who ever was with him to get up on stage when the house band was on a break and just take over. There where restrictions on how load bands could play because of the surrounding businesses but when ever he got up to play the amps would go straight to 11. He always had a strong stage presence. He would command the stage which was in contrast to how he was (at that time anyways) any other time just sitting at the bar having a beer minding his own business. I remember him telling me about landing the gig with Ozzy. It was definitely the launch pad of his career. It's funny the changes we make over the years until we wind up being who we are. Seeing Zach now and comparing him to how I remember him he has certainly gone through some of those changes. But so have I.
Zakk was at my bar back in 2007. All day. He drank a case of Heineken and was totally cool and funny the whole day. He had me rollin for 7 hours. He also tipped me really good.
Zakk walked into the tiki bar several summers ago as my duo was playing. He went to the back section to have lunch and we contemplated whether to bother him or not. We finally walked back and said hi and the dude could not have been cooler. Super nice. Funny. What a tremendous experience it turned out to be.👍👍
Zakk is awesome..love and respect him to bits. I had the pleasure of meeting him back in 06 with B.L.S, we spoke about both Randy's (Rhoads & Castillo), Ozzy and the productions of significance at the time etc and he was as genuine and warm as we see him today, instantly greeting me with a big hug and hand clutch like i was a life long pal rather than just another guy meeting one of his biggest inspirations and influences..and that tone of his voice..priceless experience and my administration for him has stayed rock solid coz examples like this brilliant video/conversation truly show Zakk being exactly the same all these years later, musician, rock star, significant entertainer/celebrity aside, Zakk is a genuinely humble, respectful and positive energy who is our equal and that will always stand out for me..all of these traits and attributes combined make him a true inspiration! Love ya brother Zakk..all the respect in the world from your pal and English brother..Neill.A. God bless Randy and Randy..Amen! SDMF. Perth, Oz.
Honestly i dont get all the hate on Zakk! He seems like a fun dud that just likes to goof off a lil! He's in a good place right now and people need to chill!
@@miagifodder5599 if you've never heard Zakks name mentioned in the metal community, you're talking about the wrong community mate. Ozzy practically birthed metal with Sabbath and Zakk played with him longer than any other guitarists Ozzy had.
Got to see Mr. Wylde a couple weeks ago in Dallas. I love Ozzy and he looks great for almost 70 but Zakk took the show to another level. Keep up the great work Mr Wylde and congrats for going clean....I'm on 2 years myself.
@@trevorgwelch7412 the fact you said who to those two names, says how very unamerican you are. Your analogy sucked too. I'm about to listen to your shit guitar playing as well.
I'm glad someone finally said. Yes, AA and NA works for a lot of people who legitimately need it... However, it's not necessary for everyone. Good on you for telling the truth Zak..
When people talk of rock stars being "down to earth" they really need to mention Zakk in that conversation more often. This dude has ALWAYS been the same. If you didn't know better, you wouldn't even know you're talking to the great father Zakk!
Zakk is still a great guitar wizard and I will always honor him for bringing Ozzy to some kind of stability. No More Tears was the first sober album, yes. But was it the first hopeful album since so much died with Randy Rhodes? I still keep most of Live and Loud among the songs on my phone to this day. They just sound like they're having fun.
Zakk is awesome hahaha! Funny dude and great guitar player. Saw him a couple years ago on Generation Axe tour with Vai & company in Vancouver. Awesome show! \m/
Again Zakk is the man h1987 prob likes edm music so its not his cup o tea. Zakk is a funny fing guy who has lived a life most people cant comprehend. I love his humor.
Well said brother..you speak for both of us coz im exactly the same man, Zakk is a true inspiration as a person as well as a professional musician bro. Maximum respect to you too mate, Neill.A.
One of the best performances out of a guitarist so far, after seeing(over these past 5 years)**...Van halen, skynyrd, metallica, Petty, shinedown, Godsmack, 5 finger, BB and Rise against
Hard to believe he is the same guy that was ozzys guitar player n da 91 no more tears album... He seems so humble n down to earth and funny.. great interview!!
Oh Dude! Zakk KILLED with shredds on the Rockstar Soundtrack. Blood Pollution!!! Just two words, Zakk Wylde, Blood Pollution, guitar solo, can't breathe!!! Okay I can stand again, wait, I'm good. That feels so much better... Yes, that is how everyone should play guitar...
same. it doesnt matter if its alcohol, drugs, cigarettes or whatever. its as simple as making the decision to quit, and then doing it. for some reason people get angry if you point that out, but its true
ZAKK IS A GOD AMONG MEN. I was blessed to meet him one day before a show. He had to be the coolest, most genuine most sincere dude I have ever met. And he did smell wonderful for those of you who may be curious. And no, not curious in that way. 🤣🤣🤣
I love Zakk I have so much respect for this fine specimen of a man.. He is so fine & talented , but the thing that makes him so awesome is :: family is everything to him &.he has been with the chicken since high school, That's just not in a Rock n Rollers DNA lol ... He's a beast I dig Black Label Society my fav band \m/ GI/FD < sdmf+
Now I wanna see that deleted scene where his character is wearing a beard. I thought I read an article a long time ago where zakk said he simply got tired of shaving
Zakk !! i listen You alonnnng fucking time ! when you started with Ozzy,i and then when you put to live "BLS" i learn how to jam from you i learn how to be a MAN who standing his ground from \YOU my father left us when i was 8 i livED my life !! i`m from poland and here it is how it is (you know) than you for giving me power to play and live ! YOU ARE THE MAN !!!! greeets from poland (now i`m 34 and i`m doing good) ! AVE Zak WILDE !!!
I can relate to the whole former drinking shit and liver issue and blood thinners every day thing as well as the compression stockings - must be a guitar player thing as we get older..lol
Will never understand any hate. He's amazing. Yes the PH's are a bit overboard but hey, its his style and it obviously works. And he is the best interviewer. When I first saw his original Loudwire interview with the "Kim Kardashian" and the Ozzy story I was dyin. Zakk's the man and YES get him on Rogan;s show!!
For some reason when I was growing up I thought he was from the south. Relationship with Dimebag and all that. Not knowing his background or hearing his voice outside of his music. He's from New Jersey, of course he's got that North Eastern accent.

@@Generichandle1 Septic tank? Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh no

He would be an amazing guest on Joe Rogans pod
THIS!
Yeah, good thing Zakk has a great personality.
Cause these guys definitely don't. And does anyone find it weird that Jim is asking about the ins and outs of alcoholism like he forgot that his claims he's a recovering alcoholic. Fake asshole makes me sick.
YES
Stillll waiting
Yes, this needs to happen. Zakky on joe's podcast.

Zak cracks me up every time. Love his personality and his guitar chops.
man, I could listen to Zakk stories for days
walbin ruiz Really? 26 minutes seems just about right
walbin ruiz ...could you..
I love that he's devoted to his wife the way he is. Have met him several times and he's such a fuckin blast to joke with and talk to. BLS/SDMF
"If you don't like losing, then you ain't gonna lose." A lot of wisdom in that phrase.
It should be written down as one of Zakk Wylde's Ten Commandments.
Zakk is the constant comedian......AWESOME PERSON🤘🏻
Zakk Wylde is one of the few (maybe only) shred guitarists who is as cool when he speaks as you think he is when he's playing.

Man i needed some motivation for my pathetic life and Zakk is on my Mount Rushmore of guitarists. Good lookin out Zakk. No more tears
wow me too,putting down the speed now and just saying fuck it.. thats it! no more fears
You can see how passionate Zak is about not selling out...seems like a solid em effer to me...
zakk is the man. playing guitar with ozzy since 19 and I remember back then. Zakk Rocks! Leave the Sauce in the Fridge!
his face when he first brings up ozzy shows how much that whole experience meant to him. i love hearing this man talk
I’m not even a huge metal fan but I love Black Sabbath And Ozzy and Zakk seems like an awesome dude!

My man zak sounds like a mix of Artie Lange and Peter griffin
elloco balei Who ? He sounds like a school boy with his thing inside a pickle jar 🏺
He didn't sound like that in the 80s. I don't know where he got it from.
In places he sound's like Day-L'ewis' 'Bill the Butcher' in 'Gangs of New York'

Love Zakk.
28-3 is a life motto!
Cool dude
Can't believe how many doctors comment here. Commenting how a 50 years old man is losing muscle so he must have cancer
I know. They just don't know it's part of life. I'm 52, I know.
You old fuck.
Shut up kid. You will get old too, that if somebody doesn't kill you first
+rbagel55 funny comment!
Chris, you're a fuckin moron.
Zakk's weight loss doesn't appear to be from illness but more of a lifestyle change. He looks quite healthy in my opinion.
Yeah these guys are tactless dorks
Pretty inspiring from around 8:00 to 11:00.
You answer the wrath of Sharron by being a friggin rock guitar god! That’s why you roll with the boss Zakk.
damn i wish this was at least an hour long.

Jim is obsessed with people's weight in every show.
Belko Juve lmao
Well he is gay
dont be vulgar
He wants people to notice his weight loss. Narcissism. But still like him.
Zakk looks like he lost about 40lbs lol..... He`s in the shape he was on the early Ozzy tours
Zakk “ya know” Wylde
Zakk rocks.
I feel like zakk is the only straight man in that room...
U can tell threw black label society he speaks threw his music! Badass guy
This guys a true guitar god
After about a year or so being sober my body rejects alcohol now I can't drink if I want to now
Zakk is super cool man I like him
He used to play for Ozzy now he plays for ZZTop :)
you're top. spin on it.
SWFARE- ZZ-Zakk
Jim Hendrix had a favorite guitar player and it was Billy Gibbons
Thank you Rick Keller 😂
Is it me or does Zakk sound like family guy?
Ray Wideman yes, yes he does. Sounds like peter griffins metal cousin
For some reason when I was growing up I thought he was from the south. Relationship with Dimebag and all that. Not knowing his background or hearing his voice outside of his music. He's from New Jersey, of course he's got that North Eastern accent.
he sounds like bender from futurama
Those guys all grew up together. Not one from the South
Dimebag and Zakk did not grow up together. they met through music. and Dimebag was from Dallas Texas. thats in the south.
I have never laughed half this much during an interview.
