Music News from the Rock Station, 92-7 WQLZ by Bishop

Your vote matters

Last week Ozzy Osbourne went on a massive media blitz to pimp his new book “I am Ozzy,” but some other nuggets of Ozzy news were also dragged out during TV, radio, and magazine interviews. One news nugget that came out was info about Ozfest starting back up this year after taking a year off, though not much other info has been revealed as to when the tour will be or who's gonna be on stage. Something else that came out was the sudden change in title of Ozzy's forthcoming album. After news released of the original title “Soul Sucka,” Ozzy saw some unfavorable reviews of the name online, so he decided to drop the title. Now he is asking that fans help decide the name for the forthcoming attempt. So, Ozzy is going to throw a bunch of possible album names up on his website and fans will have a chance to choose which name is best. I'm curious how many of you will vote for the new Ozzy album title but fail to vote in other elections that really matter ... Just saying.

It's officially homicide

As was suspected, Morgan Harrington's death has been ruled a homicide, but the details about how the 20-year-old Metallica fan was killed may take weeks to determine, according to investigators. Sadly, after months of no leads and no sign of her whereabouts, Harrington's skeletal remains were found ten miles away from where she was last seen outside of a Metallica concert in West Virginia last October. Detectives followed every lead they could and hundreds of volunteers helped search open fields and areas around the where she was last seen. The parents of Morgan say they are deeply saddened, yet relieved that Morgan can finally receive a proper burial.
