I called this one weeks ago! Especially since all the Ozzy/Sharon drama started escalating right before the announcement.

Now a couple of weeks back Tig and I had noticed that the Ozzfest facebook page had posted that "A special announcement was coming soon" then last week it was announced that Corey Taylor and Ozzy were going to make a a big announcement together. Then all this Ozzy and Sharon splitting up drama started going down (and you know those two can generate some press). So naturally I put on my detective hat and just sort of came to the conclusion that they were going to join forces for a festival. I was kind of hoping it would be a touring festival but alas that does not exactly seem to be the case.

Last night Ozzy Osboune and Corey Taylor held a press conference to make said special announcement. The news is that a one time only festival is going to go down in San Bernadino, Ca September 24th and 25th called Ozzfest meets Knotfest.

The first day of the festival will be the Ozzfest part of the festival with Black Sabbath, Disturbed, and Megadeth headling. While day two will be the Knotfest part of the festival with Slipknot, Slayer, and Anthrax headlining. See the full lineup below.

Tickets for Ozzfest meets Knotfest go on sale Friday, May 20th at 1pm EST (10am PST) you can get yours HERE. as festivals go it seems as though ticket prices might be prety reasonable the VIP ULTIMATE WEEKENDS PASS is going for $499 and has a lot of nice amenities (of course you still have to get to the west coast and have some cash to spend soooo...).

The press conference itself was pretty epic with a few collaborative performances going down. We borrowed some footage from our friends at Loudwire you can check it out below!
