You mean 3/4 Black Sabbath. I kid, I kid. Since it's a one off show I am hoping Bill gets a "Signable" contract. I went to my first Lollapalooza last year and had a great time. I actually booked my trip out to Chicago to see this about 2 weeks ago so I'm chalking Sabbath playing up to Good Karma. None of the other headliners do much for me but I'd like to check out at the drive-in to see what all the fuss is about.

I suppose this is as relevant a place to post this as any..a week or so ago Bill Ward posted the details of the unsignable contract. He definitely said it was written by exactly who we all knew wrote it. The big things that stuck out to me were he and Terry were to get Five Percent. I think Tony got something like ten or fifteen. More but not a full 25 %. Also a condition was that her daughter Kelly was to perform, on stage, a duet version with Ozzy of Changes!
Bill naturally took exception to these conditions.

I think the disclosed contract was an april fools day joke. I've only been able to find it on one site under the heading just for fun and it was posted on 4/1/12. Bill's official Facebook account makes no mention of it. I don't even think Sharron would try and get away with low balling the other members with a number like 5 or 10%. I'm just going to sit back and see what happens, hopefully these four grown man can sit in a room together and just work it out as friends. There is a very strong chance that this will be their last u.s. show ever. Let's hope they appreciate that fact and understand how important BLACK SABBATH is to the fans.

I'm sure you're right. That was my first thought too. But, I saw it after April 1st.
Wherever I saw it, can't find it now. It appeared to be from Bill Ward but that was prob'ly fake too.

Bill just made it offical. He won't be playing in Chicago with them. I'm bummed.
