OZZY OSBOURNE's 'Monsters Of Rock' To Hit Alberta In July

April 12, 2008

According to the web site of Vancouver, British Columbia metallers 3 INCHES OF BLOOD, OZZY OSBOURNE will play at the McMahon Stadium in Calgary, Alberta, Canada on July 26, 2008 as part of a day-long event that is being dubbed "Monsters of Rock". Also scheduled to appear is 3 INCHES OF BLOOD, with other acts to be announced.

As previously reported, OZZY OSBOURNE and METALLICA are strongly rumored to be headlining this summer's Ozzfest. According to our sources, this year's edition of Ozzfest will consist of two separate two-day (Saturday/Sunday) events one of which will be held in Dallas in late July/early August, with OZZY headlining one day and METALLICA the other.

The rumors come in the wake of this year's arrival of the metal-oriented Rockstar Energy Mayhem Tour, which will play 30 North American amphitheaters during July and August, the time when Ozzfest is traditionally making its rounds.

Last year's Ozzfest offered free admission, with fans acquiring tickets mostly through sponsoring web sites. But the acts were not paid either, which resulted in a decidedly less than impressive main stage lineup. The Mayhem trek has already robbed Ozzfest of two potential main-stage heavyweights in DISTURBED and SLIPKNOT, with fan favorites DRAGONFORCE and MASTODON also taking part in the Mayhem tour.
