I’ll do what I can, sir.” That’s all Wolfgang Van Halen said when asked to honor Ozzy Osbourne at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Polite. Humble. Understated. But what followed those seven words was anything but. What unfolded next wasn’t just a tribute—it was a thunderous, electrifying resurrection of rock’s wildest spirit. The moment Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers), Robert Trujillo (Metallica), and producer Andrew Watt hit their first chords, the energy shifted. It was as if the spirit of 1981 had been bottled and smashed open on stage. Lights dimmed, guitars snarled, and then—Ozzy. Storming in like a madman, the Prince of Darkness himself howled through “Crazy Train” with the same venom he had four decades ago. He was wild. He was loud. He was alive. ⬇️

Yungblud’s magnificent cover of Black Sabbath’s ‘Changes’ at the historic Back to the Beginning concert earlier this month is getting an official release. Performing as part of Supergroup A at Villa Park on Saturday 5th July, Yungblud was flanked by guitarist Nuno Bettencourt, bassist Frank Bello, drummer II (of Sleep Token) and keyboardist Adam Wakeman for the goosebump-inducing performance. Yungblud dedicated ‘Changes’ to late Liverpool player Diogo Jota, and the rousing rendition of Black Sabbath’s 1972 ballad is widely cited as one of the zeniths of the star-studded concert. The Doncaster singer – real name Dominic Harrison – has now announced that ‘Changes’ will be released as a single and on streaming services this Friday (18th July). Just like the Back to the Beginning concert, proceeds from the track will go to the charities Cure Parkinson’s, Birmingham Children’s Hospital, and Acorn’s Children’s Hospice👇👇👉

It surpassed FireAid, which brought in $100 million, Live Aid, which grossed $100 million, Farm Aid with $80 million, and Hope For Haiti with $57 million..

So I posted a few times on here about patches and the like. Was really hoping they would have them for sale at Villa Park but no dice. I’ve gone to a patch manufacturer with the idea and this is the render they’ve come back with. Basically just looking to see how many (if any) would be interested in one of these. It would be limited quantity obviously so would be first come first served. Happy to ship worldwide. Comment below or send me a pm if interested, cheers 👍 Just to add, this is NOT for profit. Any additional funds if any, will be donated to the charities supported by the event. I’ll be totally transparent with everything on the money side, I’m not looking to gain anything except a patch for my jacket

Estranged Fleetwood Mac legends Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks have shared cryptic posts on social media hinting at some kind of future activity. The choreographed social media campaign saw Stevie Nicks share the handwritten words, “And if you go forward…”, with Lindsey Buckingham finishing her sentence by adding, “You’ll meet me there”. The nine words are lyrics from the Buckingham Nicks song ‘Frozen Love’, the seven-minute closing track on their only collaborative album before they joined Fleetwood Mac, 1973’s self-titled ‘Buckingham Nicks’. Intriguingly, Fleetwood Mac drummer Mick Fleetwood also posted a video on Wednesday of him listening to ‘Frozen Love’ on the balcony of his home in Hawaii. “Unbelievable,” Mick Fleetwood says in the video. “The marriage of Stevie and Lindsey, the marriage of coming into Fleetwood Mac when they did, it’s all in the song. It’s in the music that played on for so many years. It’s magic then, it’s magic now. What a thrill, what a thrill. Amen.” The social media teases strongly point towards a much-anticipated first re-release of ‘Buckingham Nicks’. More optimistic fans are hoping the social media campaign points towards a Fleetwood Mac reunion, however that seems highly unlikely following the untimely death of Christine McVie in 2022 👇👇👇👉

Jayson Tatu: “When I first met Ella Mai, I’ll be honest—I didn’t think too much of it. She wasn’t what I expected, not at all. At that time in my life, everything revolved around NBA—NBA was taking shape, and I was consumed by the Game, the Sports, the road ahead. Romance? It wasn’t on my radar. But—Ella Mai—she walked into my life like a different kind of melody. Not loud, not flamboyant, just real… I was used to the chaos of the Sports, the wild nights, the constant movement. And she was steady—firm, thoughtful, sincere. At first, I didn’t know what to…
