Sabbath!
Went to the gig last night. Utterly awesome. Loved it. When they cracked into Children of the Grave to finish the set I was up the front like a grubby teenager. Caught myself one of Tony's picks!
Ozzy was mostly pretty good, but a bit pitchy on Hand of Doom. The video animations were pretty laughable - looked like a cut scene out of Tekken 3... Didn't think much of the support act either, though the guy did have a lot of cool guitars - and insisted on changing for every single song... Iommi on the other hand stuck to the Old Boy for every song bar one. #class.

Re: Sabbath!
Caught both Auckland shows from the last tour. Ozzy was pretty spot on at the first show (the first show of the entire world tour too) but became a bit hit or miss at the second show. Guess he doesn't handle doing shows every other day too well.
Stoked that they played After Forever and Hand of Doom this time. Too bad they didn't play Sweet Leaf on both tours though.

Re: Sabbath!
Yeah, I was pretty happy with the selection. I thought it was cool that they played Behind the Wall of Sleep - such a good beat man. Thought Tommy whatsisname was awesome, even if Rat Salad was a bit long... needed to give the old fellas a break I suppose.godgrinder wrote:Caught both Auckland shows from the last tour.

Can anyone tell me what the 3rd to last song was? The one where Iommi was playing the white guitar...

The session drummer did slightly better than last time I reckon. He sounded very rigid and "tight metal" last time. Probably have have loosen up a bit over time.

Re: Sabbath!
So I noticed that all the guitars he used looked the same, ie the Old Boy or a copy of the Old Boy.
He used a white one to round out the set, which must be in standard tuning (Dirty Women, Paranoid etc), which was white but in the same style as the main one.
He started with the red Old Boy one.
For the C# tuning stuff, did he switch to ANOTHER guitar done in the style of his number one, or did they just retune Old Boy to C#? Surely not!!

Re: Sabbath!
Wondering if I'll be able to hear Sabbath from my deck tonight. Might have to phone over and tell them to keep it bloody down

He doesn't use the original Old Boy live anymore, Jaydee made him a bunch of replicas.sirvill wrote:So I noticed that all the guitars he used looked the same, ie the Old Boy or a copy of the Old Boy.

You can buy one for ~2700 euros too:

I'd love to get a right handed one with a left handed neck some day, that way all the crosses would be inverted, haha.

Re: Sabbath!
It was heavenly for me. I'm beyond obsessed with this band. My only disappointment was not getting a shirt - I wanted the The End tour shirt, but didn't take any cash/card in... been looking online to find one, but it looks like I'm out of luck.
I loved the set, especially Snowblind, which is a favorite. Dirty Women sounded amazing live - I didn't recognise it at first, Technical Ecstasy not being an album I've listened to as much as the previous six. Ozzy said he was ashamed of Never Say Die, but I think it's much better than TE.
Geezer was solid - not very animated on stage, at all, but his playing was brilliant. Hearing that N.I.B intro was a mind blower, as was the drummers Rat Salad solo - very impressed with him, but would've been even better if Bill Ward was there. That shite about contractual issues is pathetic. Iommi sounded huge; great solos and those riffs just melted my face. Ozzy was good - more lively onstage than in 2013... he didn't get the high notes on Hand of Doom, but who cares, he was consistent everywhere else.
10/10 from me. One of the best memories I'll take to my grave.

Re: Sabbath!
Given his track record of having to quit the band or sit out of shows due to health issues I doubt he can actually do these tours. He had a heart attack right before the 1997 reunion tour and had to sit out of the first round of shows. If he had health issues 20 years ago I imagine it'd only be worse now.Clanger wrote:but would've been even better if Bill Ward was there. That shite about contractual issues is pathetic.
