All that stood between us was the huge red curtain ......the stage was at least 20 ft high .......This is Glasgow....
"Ozzy......clap clap clap .........Ozzy .....clap clap clap .............Ozzy .....clap clap clap ..."......we wanted him back ......
we'd heard the single "Crazy Train " ..........it was brilliant ......the album "Blizzard of Oz " had been released.... yesterday .....we'd only heard it a couple
of times ..........too late .......
the dry ice is snaking it's way under the curtain and over us .....Carmina Buranna begins ......the curtains part to reveal Ozzy standing centre stage
....arms aloft .....hands in a V sign ...we're all going crazy ......a huge thunderous Gong shimmers ...then the guitarist starts playing the blistering riff
......"I Dont Know"......
TBC .....

Cheers, i dont think ive seen many tickets from the early shows cool, i also like how it says 'no cameras or recording equipment' like anybody would be daft enough to be wandering around in the european murder capital with something like a camera.
