HEAVEN AND HELL: Jones Beach Footage Available

August 13, 2008

Fan-filmed video footage of HEAVEN AND HELL's August 10, 2008 performance at the Nikon at Jones Beach in Wantagh, New York (where the band was playing as part of the "Metal Masters Tour" alongside TESTAMENT, MOTÖRHEAD and JUDAS PRIEST) can be viewed below (clips uploaded by YouTube user "oneshot73").

Joe Siegler, the webmaster of the unofficial BLACK SABBATH web site Black-Sabbath.com, has received the following note from a spokesperson for SABBATH/HEAVEN AND HELL:

"The band [HEAVEN AND HELL] would like to apologize for not having played 'Neon Knights' in Jones Beach [in Wantagh, New York] nor at PNC [in Holmdel, New Jersey] [on 'The Metal Masters Tour']. Much to their extreme dismay, they had technical issues both nights that caused them to have to leave the stage prior to completing their set. They would never intentionally be discourteous to people that are there to see them and leave the stage without playing every possible second they could (and, of all songs, 'Neon Knights' is one of their favorites to play). Again, many apologies for the unfortunate circumstances."

BLACK SABBATH/HEAVEN AND HELL members Ronnie James Dio (vocals),Tony Iommi (guitar),Geezer Butler (bass) and Vinny Appice (drums) signed copies of "Black Sabbath: The Rules Of Hell" on August 2 at Vintage Vinyl in Ford, New Jersey. Check out photos at the Brooklyn Rocks music blog and photo journal.

BLACK SABBATH's "The Rules Of Hell" box set sold around 2,650 copies in the United States in its first week of release, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

"The Rules Of Hell" is a box set featuring all three of BLACK SABBATH's Dio-era studio releases ("Heaven And Hell", "Mob Rules", "Dehumanizer") and its double live collection ("Live Evil"),each recently remastered for the first time. "The Rules Of Hell" comes packaged in a deluxe slipcase with extensive liner notes featuring all new interviews with the band.
