How should we celebrate Randy on the 25th anniversary?
How should we celebrate Randy's life on the 25th anniversary of his death in March next year? What would you really like to see? Myself? I would like to see Ozzy, Tommy, Rudy and Don play the Diary set again with guest guitarists playing as a tribute.
I will be playing the last known show, El Paso 1982, to remember him.
Have you guys got any ideas, is there anything you would like us to do as a site to mark his life?

Cologne she'll wear silver and americard, She'll drive a beetle car and beat you down at cool Canasta. And when the clothes are strewn don't be afraid of the room touch the fullness of her breast feel the love of her caress she will be your living end.

I think there is TONS OF FOOTAGE out there. Too bad we have to wait so long because of the mistake one person made only a few days after the crash......

They could release the full Southampton 1980 show that they used on the Mr Crowley EP and on part of Tribute. That has to be in the vault somewhere.

According Bob Daisley $haron changed some things in Randy's contract only a few days after the crash. Mrs. Rhoads had to sue the Osbournes for years to get some money. I think all this made Mrs. Rhoads paranoid forever and not wanting to let the Osbournes make any more bucks out of Randy.Trigger wrote:What do you mean?Flying Dutchman wrote:Of course there is!Stiltzkin wrote:i'd like some more video footage released ...

I heard rumors that "After Hours" will be officially released by the Japanese in 2007, above explains maybe why it will not be released by the Osbournes themselves, as everybody would expect. Technically the Osbournes can release whatever they want, but out of respect for Mrs. Rhoads they won't. This whole situation explains why there is so little on Randy Rhoads imo.
The winner of the rat race is still a rat.
I like the idea of that, seems real cool. We could have like a picture of Randy in the middle and us lot around him to show who he's influenced or just like him and messages like you said. If anyone goes to California anytime soon then they could place a copy by his grave. I don't know, it's up to the mods I guess.skezza wrote:I think as a website, we should make some sort of tribute, possibly a poster which every member can say they have had a part of!
Possibly a poster, a set of messages from us that i will send, anything you give the ideas, I would be willing to start a poster for Randy and his family.
Sorry if anyone or Ozzy or anyone else who might read this finds this offensive but I find what Sharon did completely unacceptable. In my mind it kind of enforces the idea that they wouldn't let him leave because he was so good at guitar and stuff instead of letting him do what he wanted.flying dutchman wrote:According Bob Daisley $haron changed some things in Randy's contract only a few days after the crash.

I find it hard to believe anyone would be that disrespectful and mean to anyone let alone Randy and the rest of his family who were suffering very very badly at the time.
Yeah I know, that really annoyed me when I heard about that. Except Maiden handled it pretty well and in the end in my school everyone was on Maiden's side.Stiltzkin wrote:hey, you're talking about the woman that got alotta peopleEll wrote:I find it hard to believe anyone would be that disrespectful and mean to anyone
throw eggs at Iron Maiden
What am I going to do personally is go visit his grave site.
I was planning on doing it on the 20th anniversary, but the woman I was married to at the time wanted to take a family vacation to San Antonio.
My new wife knows better than to even try that stuff come March!!
The sad thing is... I was stationed in El Toro, CA. (Orange County) from 1984-1986, and didn't even know that he was buried near by!!
