There’s a certain amount of professional security that comes with being a rock star. For example, when you can’t reconcile differences with your bandmates, you can simply call up some of your equally famous friends to start a supergroup and take over the world.
Ozzy Osbourne is sowing those seeds right now. The Prince of Darkness has teamed up with Black Sabbath bassist Geezer Butler and legendary axemen Slash and Tom Morello for a performance at New Orleans’ Voodoo Music + Arts Experience on Halloween night, Consequence of Sound reports. This will be their first North American show, though they’ll also be playing overseas in the coming months. The supergroup hasn’t announced a drummer yet, but they should give Dave Lombardo a call. His old bandmates all hated each other too, and he’s been out of Slayer since 2013.
Ozzy and Co. are just one of several superstar acts playing Voodoo this year, which runs from Oct. 30-Nov. 1 at New Orleans’ City Park. The lineup features Florence + the Machine, Zach Brown Band, deadmau5, Chance the Rapper, Jane’s Addiction and more. Although the rock royalty will certainly put on a stellar show, it’s hard not to be a little bummed that they can’t get along with their own bandmates. Ozzy and Slash together is great. But Black Sabbath and Guns N’ Roses reunions on the same bill? Don’t even get us started.
