Okay, Shu...
At 9', you'd frighten bloody-near anyone away...and you're too beautiful a lass to do that.
Methinks there's a wee bit of stuffin' in the mix; er wot?
Anyway...
Heaven and Hell at the Merriweather Pavillion were simply phenomenal. My friend "racer" and I were fortunate enough to get backstage after the gig and spend a few precious moments w/ Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler, and Vinnie Appice was politely entertaining those who would not get so far backstage... never met RJD (still), but I can still feel the handshake from Tony...I must admit to having kinda lost my cool at that point and became somewhat of a babbling fan, but Msrs Iommi, Butler and (Pedro) Howse were more than polite throughout it all...a totally awesome experience!

Updagte on the new album!
U.K.'s Classic Rock
has heard three unfinished tracks from the forthcoming debut album from HEAVEN AND HELL ? the band featuring BLACK SABBATH members Tony Iommi (guitar
), Ronnie James Dio (vocals), Geezer Butler (bass) and Vinny Appice (drums). In a world-exclusive, the magazine visited the group on the final day of tracking at Rockfield Studios in Wales, U.K.
According to a posting
on the Classic Rock web site, "The songs we heard were a moody, thuddingly malevolent number called 'Rock 'N' Roll Jesus', the pacier and more anthemic 'Neverwhere', and a slice of sloth-like majesty that's likely to be titled 'Breaking Into Heaven'."
Other tracks set to appear on the album ? which was co-produced by the group and engineer Mike Exeter ? include "Bible Black", "Double Pain" and "Atom + Evil". A late April release via Rhino is expected.
"Each of us submitted a CD of our ideas, and we narrowed it down from there," Iommi told Classic Rock. "In some ways it was like picking up where we'd left off with 'Dehumanizer' [SABBATH's 1992 album], which was also done at Rockfield."
In a recent interview with Revolver magazine, Ronnie James Dio described the material on the HEAVEN AND HELL album as "a real cross-section of everything we've done, from 'Heaven and Hell' through 'Mob Rules' and 'Dehumanizer'. I think there's a lot of 'Dehumanizer' in it, but a lot of other things, too, a real good blend of what this band has represented."
Onward and Upward!
