Take The OZZFEST 2009 Survey

November 26, 2008

The Ozzfest 2009 survey can be accesed at this location (free registration required).

Here is your chance to help shape Ozzfest 2009. Tell the organizers whom you want to see onstage at next year's event.

On the survey, you will be able to enter up to five bands you would like to see on Ozzfest 2009. Below that you'll find some questions to answer — and you are welcome to skip those — but the more questions you answer the more times you will be entered into a random raffle for a chance to win a drumhead signed by Ozzy Osbourne, Zakk Wylde, Mike Bordin, Rob "Blasko" Nicholson and Adam Wakeman, which comes with a letter of authenticity on Ozzy stationery.

When MTV News caught up with the Osbournes at the Scream Awards in Los Angeles on October 18, they discussed what's in store for Ozzfest's 14th year. Will 2009's festival be free once again like it was in 2007?

"No, don't you know that there's a depression on?" Ozzfest co-producer Sharon Osbourne replied, defiantly. "Are you mad? We're going back to what we originally were. We've given the real good fans a free show for one time, and now, it's back to business as usual."

When pressed for next summer's lineup, she smiled, "We can't tell you now!"

"It's too early. We just got done with the last one," said son Jack Osbourne, who did suggest that the festival's namesake, his father Ozzy, will likely return to anchor the bill.

Video footage of the Osbournes talking to MTV News about next year's Ozzfest can be viewed below.

The one-day Ozzfest 2008 festival, with METALLICA and OZZY OSBOURNE as headliners, was the fourth highest-grossing concert stand in the world so far this year, according to Billboard magazine. The AEG Live-promoted Ozzfest 2008 grossed nearly $3.5 million and almost 30,000 fans got to experience a 13-hour show filled with legends, cutting-edge acts and Ozzfest alumni who ignited three stages at Pizza Hut Park in the hard music-loving state of Texas, including one devoted to the state's bands.

The official Ozzfest web site was recently updated with a brand new photo gallery from this year's event, which was held on August 9 in Frisco, Texas. Check it out at this location.
