My Review of Ozzfest 2001

Bands I was able to see:

• 1. Union Underground: They were ok. I don't really like their music and their live show is ok.

• 2. MuDvAyNe: Holy fucking shit! This was one of the greatest bands there! I was so fucking excited to see them. I didn't care if I had already missed 13 bands, I was not going to miss MuDvAyNe! And I'm glad I didn't!

• 3. Zack Wylde's Black Label Society: Wow. I had never really listened to them before Ozzfest, but I must say, they were fucking great live. One of the best things is that Zack and the rest of the band were opening and throwing beers into the crowd. Me and my friend even got hit with some of the beer! The other great thing they did was how they made fun of Limp Bizkit. Good thing they realize Limp Bigshit sucks.

• 4. Crazytown: Uh....afraid not. The sad thing is that I actually sat throught their whole set.

• 5. Disturbed: Another Holy SHIT! At first I wasn't really expecting much. But when they got out there they were fucking awesome! The crowd and I went fucking nuts! They are a great live band.

• 6. Linkin Park: I didn't think they would be as good as they did. All the songs that they played were even better than they sound on the CD.(back when I wrote this, I didn't hate Linkin Park as much as I do now.) I even think they got mad at me and my friend for not standing up when they played! (I would have but I was tired from Disturbed)

• 7. Papa Roach: I don't really like Papa Roach but they weren't bad. They were very loud and sounded good.

• 8. Slipknot: Do I even need to write anything? Of course Slipknot fucking put on a great performance. They didn't do anything really crazy like they used to, but they were fucking excellent.

• 9. Marilyn Manson: I'm not that big of a Marilyn Manson fan but he puts on a great stage show. It sort of reminded me of something Alice Cooper would do. Lots of visual aspects to go along with the music.

• 10. Black Sabbath: Do you really think that they would suck? They were fucking great, especially since they played all the stuff with Ozzy in it. Ozzy did all the usual things he does at his concert. He had the water guns to spray people with, and for people who he couldn't reach with that...He had these huge hose-like things on the ceiling so he could spray all the rest of us.
