Mastodon booted from Ozzfest

Post by BoB » Wed August 31st, 2005, 10:14 pm

According to SMN News, sources close to the OZZFEST 2005 camp reveal that 2nd Stage artists MASTODON have been kicked off the OZZFEST 2005 bill, and are no longer a part of the tour. The statement reportedly indicates that the band were (or have been) "destroying" things backstage while drunk and disorderly, and have been considered problematic. A more official announcement is expected shortly, as well as more details as to why MASTODON are no longer a part of OZZFEST 2005.
That kinda makes me like Mastodon more now. Maybe they can land a gig opening for Iron Maiden.

They have been opening for Maiden...but that will probably not happen any more, considering the really fucking dumb things that some of them have been saying...while drunk. Mastodon is in the first stages of self-destruction. Really is a shame too.

It's just ironic that a tour w/ Ozzy requires such professionalism - look at Ozzy's history! If he wouldn't have given his balls to his wife then he'd be tearing things up w/ Mastodon. ROCK AND ROLL!

i would say that it is most likely brent and he passed the first stages of self-destruction a long time ago.

but i'm with bob here, who cares if they are destroying stuff backstage......they are the best band on the bill. i'm actually going to see them tonight with rob zombie.

I saw Rob Zombie at the International Ballroom in 98 or 99...He had an awesome stage show complete with hot go-go dancers and a screen that played all this super weird stuff from horror flicks. I wish I could go tonight. Have fun, Blazeykins.

A. It's Jada Pinkett.
B. Everyone I know on that tour has told me that Will & Jada are like the nicest people ever.

Why not dig up Mr Rogers and put him on the side stage to replace Mastodon?

That'd be pretty awesome because he was a nudist. I'm all for a naked Mr. Rogers running around with puppets and shit.
