I always liked Mike in Faith No More. He is much more suited playing that funky stuff.

fully agreed :D Mike was great in 'Faith No More' and the song and video 'Epic' is still one of my favorite songs. But In Ozzy i think he is a little lame. I hate Ozzy's stuff to be flooded with drums, Carmine Appice being guilty of that, but Mike is the opposite of Carmine and leaves gaps crying out for riffs. Brian was much better in the Ozzy band.

I think Mike is alright...not my favorite, but he's alright. Randy Castillo takes the favorite spot.
I remember whenever I'd see Ozzy live and they'd play War Pigs, it never sounded right for me. :? It sounded a bit off and it always bothered me. I remember listening to Ozzy on the local radio station and the DJ was interviewing him about the band and Ozzy said he found Mike while doing War Pigs with him and some other guys at some LA club and then Ozzy went onto say that he loves Mike, despite that he fucks up War Pigs. :shock: :lol:

I have heard War Pigs by Ozzy a few times and it was never a song I cared for. When I was at the reunion Sabbath shows in 1997 when Bill Geezer Tony & Ozzy got back together for the very first time to do a full show, They kicked the show with War Pigs (as you will know from the album they recorded) and at that point I realised that the reason it sounded wrong was that Bill plays it better. I had never been a fan of Bill but right there and then I realised that all those tunes are played better by him. I do admire his playing now and understand why he plays as he does.

I'm having a stab at this one ...Was it the most amount of gigs played...? Probably wrong but..

An earlier question was what words are under the Grim Reaper skull tattoo and its the tatooist's name Robertez '81 Benedict... Well i think thats his name ?

No one answered my question. :cry:

And I can answer the last one...Ozzy broke the record for longest time elapsed between number one singles in 2003...for the Abomination that was Changes. :lol:

Haven't got a clue, but I'll guess, 8lb 20z ?

Yeah you've got the answer to my question,. well almost, it was actually the time between first entering the charts (Paranoid No 4 1970) upto getting his first number one single 2003 with Changes. Something like over 33 years, he beat Lulu's record of 29 years.
Isn't it ironic, it's probably the worst Ozzy single ever and yet it's the only one to get ever to number 1, its amazing how much sympathy you get for falling off a Quad bike. LOL

Ozzy weighed in at 10 lbs when he was born. :lol: He said he was probably the fattest baby born in his city that year.
