I dont think they will , Bob wants people to hear them. Normally when people talk about getting new RR material I wouldn't hold my breathe. But I think that Bob may one day actually release them. I mean he thinks he is sitting on a fortune well at least in the 25,000 dollar figure. But the reality ...

Looks like the best idea is to check with the shop after the signing to see if they have any signed copies left and available through the shop.....ya might be lucky...!!

I'll find out for you......let you know tomorrow....

Bob will be appearing at ICON MUSIC (Sydney, Australia) on December 7th to sign copies of his book, "For Fact's Sake". Books will be available on the day for $38 each.

Bob will be in the store from 2pm to 4pm.

I just wonder how he started up at 9 years old and what his mom thought/ said? more importantly...did she do anything about it? Bit hard for any parents to do anything about it......kids will find a way, a time and a place if they really want to do something........only option would be to permanent...

The autopsy did show signs of emphysematous changes in his lungs, so I'm not surprised he was out of breath quickly going for a jog.

Don, or Sharon?

David, Sharon's brother.

Image might be important but only to a certain degree. I'm sure glad it doesn't count for too much, let's face it, there's more than a few very 'average' looking musicians, past and present.

They we referring to editing the tapes so it was just Ozzy and Randy that you would hear. Sharon would never destroy that carrot. Isn't it obvious to everyone who knows who Ozzy Osbourne that he can't write music by himself? He can sing, come up with a melody but he's not the brightest bulb, is he?...

If you'd read Bob's book you'd know exactly what he wanted in return for the grail - To retain control over how the tapes were edited, no lump sum but he asked a 2% royalty i.e. TWO percent from the profit of sales of the box set and the Osbournes would retain 98% of the profits. Greed? The same 2%...

I doubt he'd answer that.

Alright. Give me a dollar figure. What is the Grail worth? You tell me. I am not trying to be smart. That is my point there. Funny thing here folks, is it is all about the money! How many dust ups have we had here where I have stated this and been berated? Do you think RR was so egotistical that he...

Why does everything have to be 'for profit'? Ozzy has more money than he'll ever need and I'm sure Bob's doing alright. So why constantly profess how much Randy meant to you and how much you loved him and then only ever try to profit off of him? Naive, maybe, but I get so tired of the greed factor....

Fact is everything costs something to produce, people don't go to any effort these days without expecting to be paid. The box set, the wine, the books, ....the grail tapes, ...yes, it's about RR, and thats why people want it, but those items also cost money to produce, regardless of the artist. Just...
