17. I am glad you had fun:)
Zakk Wylde can be a jerk though. He can be just about as loud as that dried up prune Nugent:)

Maybe Zakk Wylde learned to shut his mouth and just play?.

Last time i saw him, he went into the typical bullshit about fighting them there, save America blah blah blah.

Be careful:)

14. Awesome!
Despite my metal years, I never saw Ozzy, or Black Sabbath for that matter, in concert.

I got to see KISS in 78

I saw Maiden in 82, 84, and 86

I saw ACDC so many times I forget

And I saw Yngwie Malmsteen twice

6. How do you dance to Metal?
It ain't exactaly conducive to dancing. Nothing wrong with it, but it is just a bit hard to shake one's ass to Metallica. Glad you had a great time. Thanks for sharing.

11. I would have liked to see Apocolyptica
I've been to a few massive music festivals, and i honestly don't like them all that much. too much at once. I prefer one or two bands at a time.

Still, a great opportunity to see a bunch of big acts

19. Did Metallica play any new material?
And if so was it any good? They've been dead awful since Justice but I still hold a tiny spot for them, hoping they'll come back to the fold.

23. I saw Ozzy back in January.
And he was very good. He was healthy and on top of his game. And Zakk is awesome, worth the price just to see him rip.

24. I've been boycotting Ozzfest since 2005.
Sure this year's lineup is one of the best they've ever had but I was at the Devore show in '05 when Sharon Osbourne sneaked eggs and sharp objects into the pit and instructed people to throw them at Iron Maiden. Seriously, fuck her.
