    hi terance, firstly looking forward to the scramble for tickets on friday hope to get and see a wee intimate gig with yous all and will be good to see tony up on stage where he belongs. we have been to bonn and wembley to see yous now the home of metal and sabbath would be a dream come true.
    secondly mccleish has to go 2 teams in 2 relagation battles in 2 years not a villa manager, not good manager. who would you hope for?

    all the best enjoy the gig and give my best to tony

    I first saw you guys in 1974 at the California Jam. I’ve seen Sabbath several times since, My freind Mark and I used to ditch school and play air guitar while listening to you guys. Black Sabbath has been with me through everything. Please bring back Bill.
    thanks,

    Queued for 10 hours on Thursday night/Friday morning to secure my tickets for the gig of a lifetime, I just feel sorry for the true fans that couldn’t get away from work to queue up and had to run the gauntlet of the online ticket sales fiasco!

    Roll on the Brum Academy gig…any chance ‘Supertzar’ could be resurrected as the intro tape ?….up the villa,

    Dear Geezer,

    can you please come with the band to the forgotten Liverpool? thank you and God bless you.

  10. John says:

    Hey Geezer,
    Is Bill the drummer?

  11. DGripper says:

    We ALL want Bill Ward, Geezer! We love you guys but it’s not the same without all 4 Original members.

  12. Mark Vance says:

    Geezer please do something to get Bill Ward there !

  13. Evan Ezra says:

    Geezer, what has happened? To call this an official Black Sabbath reunion and not have your “brother” Bill playing is a shame and a sham. Come on and get together, sort it out now and lets see Black Sabbath in all its glory.

  14. Luca says:

    Geezer, this my “open-letter” to Bill.
    Please find a way to get Bill in his place.

    Bill,
    I’m 42, live in Italy, and into Sabbath since I was 13.
    I was lucky enough to saw you at the Astoria, in London, in December 1999, the year my son Jacopo was born.
    Jacopo is now a little drummer that thinks Bill Ward is the best drummer ever.
    When this year tour was announced we immediately bought tickets for your date at Gods Of Metal in Milan; when cancelled bought tickets for Download. That would be the last chance lo let Jacopo see you.
    On the 10th of June we’ll drive 200 Km, catch a plane to East Midlands, will be at Donington Park, then will take a train from Derby to Manchester Airport to be back in Italy on the 11th of june afternoon.
    Tomorrow I don’t really know how to tell Jacopo what I’ve just read.
    Please Bill, “come to Birmingham and see how the first gig goes”. You know you’ll play Download. You know.
    Thank you.
    Luca

    Geezer, whats going on, reunion without Bill-unacceptable-what is the real reason he is not playing???

  16. Rich Emms says:

    Geezer, have a great show. Hope it goes great!

    Much love to you, Tony and Oz!

  17. Roy Girard says:

    I have been a huge fan since I was 12. In fact Vol.4 was my first “rock n roll” album!
    If you guys do a world tour, please, I mean please! consider Vancouver, B.C. Canada.
