00:00Riff TV presents Meltdown's Meltdown.
00:07It's Ozzy on Detroit's Rock Station 101 WRIF The Riff.
00:12Hey guys, it's Meltdown.
00:14Ozzy and Stone Sour wrapped up the summer concert series for 2018 last night at DTE.
00:19And before the show, we walked around and talked to some of the fans about their favorite Ozzy memories.
00:23Mine, I got to take some Riff listeners on a Learjet in 1997 down to his show in Cincinnati.
00:30We happened to park next to Ozzy's Learjet.
00:33We raced back after the show and got a chance to meet him at the airport one way.
00:36Here's what some of the fans said were their favorite Ozzy memories.
00:40Here with Ryan and Rachel from Belleville, your favorite Ozzy memory.
00:43What do you say, Ryan?
00:44That would be my first concert on the No More Tours Part 1 show with Ugly Kid Joe and Faster Pussycat.
00:50There you go, the No More Tours tour.
00:52Now we're on No More Tours tour 2.
00:552004 when I came to Ozfest, just the whole energy of the whole full day concert was just awesome.
01:04And now Tyler, this is your first Ozzy concert, right? Are you excited?
01:06Oh yeah, hopefully it's better.
01:08Gavin, Bob and Dana here from Ray Township.
01:10And Gavin, this is your first rock concert?
01:12Yes.
01:13How old are you?
01:1311.
01:14You know, my first concert was Ozzy too. We're like alike.
01:17Oh.
01:19And in about three months, you'll be taller than me.
01:21Oh really?
01:23What's your favorite Ozzy memory, Dad?
01:25When he came out in Ozfest, it looked like he peed himself. Literally. He was so damn sweaty. It was absolutely amazing.
01:32What's one of your favorite Ozzy memories? I know you haven't seen him before, but I mean from the past. Anything that sticks out in your mind?
01:38Actually, we were just watching, my daughter's four years old, and we were watching Little Nicky for the first time. And that scene popped up where Ozzy showed up. And man, it took me back to a little kid again when I first saw it. And I was dying and she thought it was hilarious.
01:51Seeing him live is so much different than listening to him on record and stuff like that, even though it's completely amazing and blows your mind. When you hear him live, not to mention the amazing guitarist that he's had through history. And the Sabbath years, you've got to love the Sabbath years.
02:07Kortz and Gavin here, their first time Ozzy concert. Man, you guys are like Ozzy virgins, eh?
02:12Oh yeah.
02:13Yeah, it's going to be pretty lit.
02:17Okay, what are your favorite Ozzy songs?
02:19Probably just like the basic, like Crazy Train, shit from that album, you know?
02:25Huh, that's a tough one.
02:27Hmm.
02:28Bad thing.
02:29Probably Crazy Train, too.
02:31Can you name another Ozzy song?
02:32Oh no, I totally can't. Yes, I can.
02:36Uh, oh my god, now I can't think.
02:39A Dreamer, I'm Coming Home, uh...
02:43Suicide Solution is here. I hope he plays it. I didn't see the set list.
02:46Uh, what are some other ones?
02:47Killer of Giants, that's Black Sabbath.
02:50No, you're, yeah, yeah, tell your moms, just be quiet.
02:53Okay, you guys are doing the interview here, you guys are doing just fine.
02:56Uh, so is she the one who turned you guys on to Ozzy?
02:59Kinda not.
03:01He got me to it.
03:02Charles, report here on here at the Ozzy show, how many times have you seen Ozzy?
03:0530.
03:06Have you really?
03:07Yep.
03:07Wow, going back to when?
03:091999, Sabbath, Pantera, Valentine's Day.
03:13You've seen him 30 times since then? That's unbelievable.
03:16Ultimate Sin Tour, because, uh, Metallica opened up for him.
03:20Ah, that's right, yeah, way back in, uh, 86?
03:23Yep.
03:2386, man.
03:25Bob from Davisburg is here, and, uh, Bob, this is your second Ozzy show.
03:28Apparently your first one was when you were 12 with Black Sabbath?
03:31With Black Sabbath, yeah.
03:32Wow.
03:33Where was that at?
03:33It was, God, I want to say it was Cobo Hall with, uh, Blue Easter Cult.
03:39I haven't seen Ozzy, I've seen Black Sabbath, not Ozzy.
03:43Now, you're obviously a big Ozzy fan, show everybody your, uh, tattoo.
03:46Now, Ozzy did sign your arm.
03:48Yes.
03:49Where was that at?
