BLACK SABBATH: BILL WARD's Audio Diary Available

May 3, 2005

According to a post at Black-Sabbath.com, BLACK SABBATH drummer Bill Ward has left the U.S. to head to England for rehearsals for the European BLACK SABBATH shows and Ozzfest. As a present, Bill has recorded an audio diary for his web site visitors. The diary talks about a bevy of topics, including the following: Bill's radio show "Rock 50", the start of SABBATH rehearsals, how he gets in shape for SABBATH's drumming and his exercise regimen, some of the things he does offstage on tour, some of Bill's favourite music, the other bands on Ozzfest, Ozzy's bike accident and his recovery from that, what it's like playing with Geezer Butler, updates on Bill's new record deal, future things on BillWard.com, various SABBATH members' solo albums, and of course, the prospects of a new BLACK SABBATH album.

The entire audio diary entry is 21 minutes and 15 seconds long and can be downloaded at this location (m4a file).

You need one of any number of free audio players (Winamp, iTunes, or Musicmatch Jukebox) to play this file.

The plans are for Bill to continue these audio diaries once the SABBATH tour starts.
