ozzy and sharon

[randy will never die]

been bugging me awhile

Do you think Randy would have played at ozz and sharons wedding

[kamalayka]

No.

[Paul Wolfe]

Of course he would have. He would still have been in the band at that point, so why not?

[kamalayka]

I don't know a whole lot about Randy, but I recall reading that he wanted to get out of the band. Unless it was written in his contract,I doubt he would have cared to!

Ozzy's band did play at his wedding. Tommy Aldridge was best man.
If RR was around, I am sure he would have joined in. Why not?
They didn't hate each other. Another myth that has been further polarized by fan's opinions after the fact.

If RR hated his situation THAT much, he would have walked away. He did plan to stay for another album.

Exactly. It wasn't a paying gig or a contractual obligation thing... then again, I don't know how old you are randy will never die, but in today's era of celebrity weddings and hoopla, I can understand your question.

Back then Ozzy was still on the rise and didn't have the celebrity status that would have made a huge interest in his wedding. Ozzy was moderately well known and nobody knew Sharon...

In today's era would Randy have played at Ozzy's wedding? Probably not, because celebrity weddings are a huge spectacle now. Hell, it'd probably be a pay-per-view event! Randy didn't seem like the kind of guy who'd have wanted to be involved in a spectacle.
