Complete set of dates with Ozzy.

Post by Fozzy41 »

Does anyone know the complete set of concert dates that Brad played while a memeber of Ozzy's band. I've been on various websites but I'm sure the list of dates is incomplete.

I think you've got a tall order to sort out Fozzy.I noticed that Mitch never had a full list of tour dates with Brad all the time Ozzyhead was active.I think the only possible way is to see the local press from that area and time, check for a list of possible tour dates.The music mags will have individual gig listings in but you'd have to go from Japan to different US States..I couldn't even guess at how many gigs he did...

OK Woopie

It goes like this :) ........
Late 82 Brad, Rudy, Don, Tommy

December 82 the band are due to arrive in Britain for the UK leg of the 'Speak of the Devil' tour, BUT Rudy Doesn't show up!

So the Band is Brad, Pete Way, Tommy & not Don Airey for these shows in Europe but Lyndsey Bridgewater who was last seen in the band in December 1981 In the Euro 'Diary' tour shows. This line up of Brad, Tommy, Pete, Lyndsey play the last gig as this line up on Dec 19th in Liverpool.

On Jan 16th 1983 in Helsinki, Finland the band has a new line up!

Jake E Lee, Don Costa, Tommy & Lyndsey

They get back to the USA in Feb but Lyndsey is replaced by Don Airey and in May 1983 Don Costa is replaced and the line up is like this

Jake, Bob Daisley, Don, Tommy

In November 83 Tommy is replaced by Carmine Appice and then Tommy Replaces Carmine in March 1984!

The band remains in this Jake,Bob, Tommy & Don until Jan 1985

THe last line up Bob,Jake, Tommy & Don in my oppinion was the last great line up Ozzy had 8)

I hope that makes sense and helps :D
