Ozzfest Is Coming to Israel!?!?!?
Ynet reports that HaYarkon Park on September 28 will be doused in Ozzfest with bands including Korn…
My Facebook friend Shuki Weiss (anyone can be his friend, heh) is going to release the names of the other bands shortly – this event could bring thousands of people across the region to Tel Aviv. Motley Crue is confirmed by Raven Metal’s Yishai Sweartz not to be one of them, however.
There have been attempts to brainwash the Osbournes against Israel and induce Ozzy not to play by e-mail admonishments and forum spam. But Sharon Osbourne, G-d bless her and may she have continued health, stated “we believe that music is beyond politics, and we do not take part in this.” This is perceived as a joyous nose thumb to the racists who have badgered the Osbournes.
A few other wimpy, sanctimonious whiny little ‘artists’ have fallen prey to becoming political puppets, but not Ozzy! Ozzfest in Israel will only prove to cement the loyalty of throngs of Israeli and Jewish fans to the Osbournes. I, for one, intend to buy some merch if we can’t G-d forbid be in Israel at the time of the show.
And that’s a HUGE G-d forbid.
In any case, the Ozzfest village as seen across America is going to be staking its claim in HaYarkon Park, the thing is going to be freaking huge, costing an investment of almost $2 million and worth every penny, and it’s a historical moment. \m/ Tickets are 325 NIS, soon to be 425 NIS. VIP packages including an actual seat, T-shirt and luxury accommodations (what, free pita and hummus?!) will cost 1,100 NIS. Ribono shel olam.

…you know it would be so cool if they made sukkot instead a tents in that village/merch section they’re gonna put up…
