"Black Rain" will arrive May 22 via Epic. Specially marked copies of the new set will be available at participating retailers. Fans will be able to use a code found within the album's packaging to redeem two Ozzfest tickets via a special starting June 8 -- four days before they're made available to the general public.
Ozzy and his wife Sharon created a stir back in February when they revealed Ozzfest would be a sponsor-driven, free event, and acts would be asked to play without being paid.
In addition to Osbourne, confirmed Ozzfest acts include Lamb Of God, Hatebreed, Lordi, Mondo Generator, Ankla, Circus Diablo, Nile, the Showdown, 3 Inches Of Blood, Daath, Chthonic and In This Moment. The 24-city tour wraps August 30 at the Sound Advice Amphitheatre in West Palm Beach, Fla.
Before his headlining his stint on Ozzfest, Osbourne will play international dates beginning May 27 in Moscow. He is also one of the subjects of VH1's "Rock Honors," to be taped May 12 in Las Vegas for a May 24 premiere on the network.
there will probably be a random generated code in each album, just like the websites.
Im planning on buying two records just for the tickets :P
I dont see why people are whining about this. The CD will cost 15 bucks at the most, better to pay that then whatever tickets were before. Very smart move.
