OZZY OSBOURNE To ZAKK WYLDE: 'My Schlong Doesn't Work'
December 24, 2014During an appearance on the nationally syndicated "Loveline" radio show with hosts Dr. Drew Pinsky and Mike Catherwood, BLACK LABEL SOCIETY mainman Zakk Wylde recounted some of his favorite memories as the guitarist for Ozzy Osbourne's band. Check out the clip below.
Recalling one backstage incident from an Osbourne tour, Zakk said: "I remember the steam showers were going on. I'm just sitting thereā¦ Me and Ozzy were just sitting in there. That was the best, 'cause all the steam was going and everything. And these two chicks came in there. They were backstage, right?! And they just came in and they [saw] me and Ozzy sitting there. And the chicks go, 'Oh my God! We're sorry.' And they just, like, ran away. And I was just cracking up, going, 'They probably didn't wanna interrupt our intimate time.' And then Ozz just goes, 'Zakk, look at me. Look at my willy. Look at the state of this.' And I just go, 'What?' and he just goes, 'Look at it! It's a sad state of affairs.' And Ozz goes like this, 'You know what those girls were thinking right now.' And I was, like, 'What's that, boss?' And he just goes, 'They took one look at this thing, and they just said, 'Huh. I guess I'll put it behind my ear and smoke it later.'"
Zakk also recalled another conversation with Osbourne in which the BLACK SABBATH singer lamented the state of Ozzy's sex life. Zakk said: "Mom [Sharon Osbourne] and Barbaranne [Zakk's wife] go out, so it's me and the Boss [Ozzy]. And he just goes, 'Zakk, you know, I don't drink anymore, I don't do drugs anymore. I don't even smoke; I never thought I'd give that up.' Then he goes, 'I don't even drink coffee anymore; I'm drinking tea. My schlong doesn't work.' And I go, 'Man, that's messed up.' And he goes, 'Zakk, why am I alive?'"
Wylde became Ozzy Osbourne's guitarist in 1987 after sending the singer a demo tape. He performed with the band right up until 2009, when he was replaced by FIREWIND guitarist Gus G.
