Original BLACK SABBATH line-up to reunite with OZZY ?

BLACK SABBATH to reunite ?

Tony Iommi & Geezer Butler from Heaven & Hell or Black Sabbath ???

OZZY Osbourne was @ KNAC radio yesterday talking about a few things including a "very probable" reunion of the classic BLACK SABBATH line-up feat. Ozzy, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler & Bill Ward.
The funny thing is that he said that they would "very very" probably record new material to do " the ultimate SABBATH record" and then go on tour.

Hard to believe, he can't barely walk on stage and he's planning a year and a half tour to promote his new album "Scream".
So if it ever happens it won't be before 2012
You have to remember that they tried to do a record ten years ago and it was shelved.

He also had some very kind words for the late Ronnie James Dio.

We shall see...

New feud between Aerosmith & Tyler regarding his possible "American Idol" gig as a judge

Updated August 5 :
With Interview from The Cowhead Show (click to listen to the interview).
Joe Perry : "Again, the four of us were in shock. It was a replay of last year, except this time he had a job." "It's like getting hit over the head." ...and so on...
The future doesn't look bright for AEROSMITH.

Tyler has a head as big as this nowadays (left) & his head is getting heavier and heavier (right)
@ Paris Bercy june 2010

Tyler has confirmed that he will be a judge for "American Idol".
Perry was furious: "I found out on the Internet like the rest of the world" he told the Boston Herald.
"There was an AEROSMITH afterparty at Studio 54 after the Vegas show — which none of us in the band knew anything about — and he said some stuff there. I mean, this is no small thing."
"I mean, after working with me for 40 years, he couldn't tell me about this," Perry told BostonHerald.com. "Why so secretive? We're told it's a done deal. If Steven is committed to a TV show, that kind of affects the rest of us. We'd like to plan our lives, ya know?"
Perry said he confronted Steven in his dressing room before the band’s show Saturday night at the MGM Grand about the “American Idol” buzz. Tyler said he was instructed not to discuss it, said Perry.

It looks like Tyler is loosing it once again... and this time it's not prescription drugs.
It's probably a thing called EGO , remember a few months ago he wanted out and do a solo record among other things.
AEROSMITH threatened to go on tour with another singer... and things cooled down suddenly with a Tour.

HEY STEVEN WHAT DA FUCK ARE YOU SMOKIN' ???
