I have a lot of regrets that I’ll never be able to make up for. A major one was walking out on Black Sabbath when they came to perform at Dallas for Ozzfest 2005. It wasn’t that I didn’t like their performance but I had school the following day so I felt like I needed to go back home sooner rather than later and I stupidly thought hearing them perform a handful of songs off the Paranoid album was going to be enough. Now that the band is broken up, all chances to make up for that moment are gone forever.
I feel so stupid for walking out. Black Sabbath’s music was better than any of the mainstream rap, country, and radio rock the kids at school liked and it was a rare opportunity to see a legendary band perform.
I saw Sabbath, and OZZY solo with Zakk Wylde. I understand the regret but don't beat yourself up over it. One of my bucket list wishes was to see Red Hot Chili Peppers live, ideally in California. I had tickets and sold them because my friend backed out. I could have gone with someone else but I decided to sell at a huge profit. I regretted that for a really long time because I'm sure I won't get the opportunity again, but what can you do.
I love OZZY and I worry about his health. Maybe we can post some music.
By the way Zakk Wylde was insane and could play with the guitar behind his back.

I did see Zakk’s band, Black Label Society, at the same show. Zakk is indeed talented but in interviews with him, he came off like a jerk. I haven’t listened to any of BLS’s music since Shot to Hell.
I wish I saw Type O Negative live but I never will since Peter Steele died. I had a chance to see Soundgarden when they reformed but with Chris Cornell gone now, it’s impossible. I also never got to see Gwar when Oderus Urungus was still alive despite how they came to Austin a lot. I was always anxious to drive down there by myself and I kick myself for not doing it sooner. I’ve missed a lot of bands because of the anxiety I suffer from. It’s been a millstone around my neck.
