We just done doing The Blessed Hellride tour and Ozzfest.
I'm crazy excited to be performing at the MTV Brand new 2017 showcase! MTV has always been about showcasing new talent, and to be selected by the team to perform on the night is an honour!
Every year, I always go abroad with dark music, and I'm going to these places, and I feel like I want a party rep - I want something that everyone is going to go crazy to and enjoy and have a good feeling.
My first concert was Chicago and Moody Blues. I was 15 years old.
When I'm at a show, I'm yelling and cheering. I'm with those guys [the Grateful Dead].
The first real gig I went to was Randy Crawford in 1980. Seeing a big star like that was just fantastic.
People have had the idea to do a '90s alternative tour for a long time. I didn't come up with that; I was the first guy to basically say it was time.
The month of September is Women in Jazz, so I'm doing jazz there in September. I'm in for the duration.
The first concert I ever went to was the Bee Gees.
I accepted an offer to do a concert for the reopening of the Mall of Memphis.
It was great to play for a live audience on a stage.
My first concert was Third Eye Blind.
The first show I did with Coldplay was really scary.
There is something f-king unbelievable about seeing all of the fans go crazy and chanting 'Ozzy!' I would pay to see them.
I'd definitely love to play in Nashville again. That would be really good.
It probably wasn't until Nine Inch Nails played the first Lollapalooza that I actually went to a festival.
We saw The Who on New Year's Eve in 1975.
Everything they’d been brought up not to do, they could do at a rock-and-roll show.
With horns and a full rhythm section, the drums always looked like the best seat in the house.
I'm from Florida, so any time I get invited to come to Florida and play a show, I'm definitely always up for that.
A concert is not a live rendition of our album. It's a theatrica! event.
Two weeks later, we played our first concert and had 100 people there. It was pretty cool.
I never do a show where the people just sit there and look at me. They always sing along. It's going to be a fun time.
We already knew that Glastonbury is one of the largest music festivals. We always wanted to perform here, and it's like a dream. It's really amazing.
Me being a skinny guy, I could crawl into the steel pit.
