Great work guys and thank you for keeping this thing going when I was away.
Some metal news written by me with info from various sources:

Ozzy Osbourne and his cunt wife Sharon announced earlier this week that this summer's Ozzfest 2007 will be free to all attendees. Reports are that the band System Of A Down, which headlined last years festival, demended and received a sum of $325,000 per show. Sources within the Ozzy camp say that these kinds of demands from current bands nearly crippled the festival. This year, all bands will get no pay for their performances, sponsors will cover the ticket money, and seven dollar frozen burritos, thirty dollar t-shirts, and five dollar bottled water will cover the festival's day to day expenses. Rumors are rampant across the web, with most people guessing that the bands that will agree to play for free will be of far less quality than in years past. We’ll see…

Heaven And Hell — the band consisting of guitarist Tony Iommi, bassist Geezer Butler, vocalist Ronnie James Dio and drummer Vinny Appice. Original drummer Bill Ward declined to do the tour due to personal and health reasons. H&H kicks off their world tour on March 11th in Vancouver. The March 30th date, which will be held at New York’s Madison Square Garden, sold out in less than 45 minutes, and pollstar magazine recently placed the tour on the top of their Top 50 tours for 2007, ranked by popularity and ticket sales.
