Ozzy Drops Zakk?

08/19/05
. (Day in Rock) (A Reader Submitted the following story as a followup to a story from yesterday) In the August issue of Penthouse, Ozzy Osbourne confessed to needing a new guitar player. "I need someone cool who can play good guitar. I've had a couple guitar players and they all play great, but the chemistry wasn't right. The chemistry has to be right. It's like marrying a perso. It's great the first day you're married, but you wake up two days later and go, "Why the f*** did I marry you? You're ugly and I hate you!"

Though not included in the printed interview, Ozzy went on to explain in the transcript how he loved playing with Zakk, but now that Zakk has become so successful on his own, Ozzy is looking to find "the next Zakk or Randy Rhodes."
