. (Blabbermouth) As Blabbermouth.Net first reported on August 3, Randall Amplifiers has now confirmed via its Facebook page that 28-year-old Greek guitarist Gus G. (FIREWIND) has been tapped to play with Ozzy Osbourne at the closing concert of this year's BlizzCon, which will take place August 21-22 at the Anaheim Convention Center.

In addition to his current axe-slinging duties with Firewind, Gus (real name: Kostas Karamitroudis) � who has an endorsement deal with Randall � has played in Mystic Prophecy, Nightrage, Arch Enemy and Dream Evil.

It is not presently clear who will sit behind the kit for Ozzy Osbourne's performance at BlizzCon, since his longtime drummer, Mike Bordin, is currently on the road in Europe with the reunited Faith No More. - What happened to Zakk?
