Tickets will not be easy to get if you want to be at this party. Ozzfest - The King Of Festivals, was originally launched in 1996 as a limited two-city tour. Since then it has become a virtual breeding ground for up-and-coming bands. This second stage has been instrumental in catapulting the careers of SYSTEM OF A DOWN, LINKIN PARK, LIMP BIZKIT, INCUBUS, SLIPKNOT, DISTURBED, GODSMACK and CHEVELLE.

"Playing Ozzfest - twice - will always be among the highlights of our career," notes drummer Samuel Loeffler of CHEVELLE, who most recently appeared in the festival's 2003 line-up. "Personally speaking, I was honored and somewhat nervous about sharing the stage with Ozzy, but finally felt comfortable after both he and Sharon patted me on the ass."

Ozzfest returned this summer to celebrate its hard-earned 10th anniversary with the impressive line-up of BLACK SABBATH, IRON MAIDEN, ROB ZOMBIE, KILLSWITCH ENGAGE, SHADOWS FALL and BLACK LABEL SOCIETY. Ozzfest is the summer's premier concert festival and pays close attention to its discerning fans. Fans play a vital role in deciding who will appear at this annual festival. The 2005 edition rolled out from Boston on July 15 and visited 26 cities by the time it reached West Palm Beach on September 4. The Hot Topic Second Stage was headlined by ZOMBIE and featured a preview of rock's rising stars, including AS I LAY DYING, MASTODON, THE HAUNTED, IN FLAMES, ARCH ENEMY, THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, BURY YOUR DEAD, SOILWORK, TRIVIUM, IT DIES TODAY, A DOZEN FURIES and more.

JUDAS PRIEST - one of the biggest attractions on last year's tour - declared: "We were thrilled to be part of such a unique moment in heavy metal history that will be remembered forever!" JONATHAN DAVIS - lead singer for KORN, who pounded the main stage in 2003 - added, 'Ozzy and Ozzfest are some of the cornerstones of metal. I loved playing in front of the Ozzfest crowd, the fans at those shows were f$*#ing amazing."

Great music and simply raw entertainment is what is in store for Ozzfest 2006. If you are a fan or even a music buff, you don't want to give this musical extravaganza a miss. Get you tickets now, contact your on line ticket vendor.
