ahead of Tuesday's (September 28) Ozzfest concert in Tel Aviv's Hayarkon Park.
Earlier today, he held a press conference at Tel Aviv's Sheraton Hotel where he
was asked why he hadn't come to Israel before. Osbourne replied, "No reason,
really. I mean, I was drunk for too many years." Ozzy also dismissed any talk of
artistic boycotts of Israel, saying "I have no time for politics, they
[politicians] don't understand me and I don't understand them."
Osbourne's wife/manager Sharon drew a parallel to "the troubles" in Northern
Ireland that plagued England in past decades, saying "it's the same as when we
had all the problems with the IRA and no one refused to perform in England, so I
don't know why people don't come here."
According to Ynet, the Israeli edition of Ozzy's travelling festival, Ozzfest,
is reportedly costing nearly $2 million to put on. Ticket prices were originally
325 Israel New Shekels (around $84), and were subsequently raised to 425 Israel
New Shekels (around $110). VIP packages â€" including an actual seat, T-shirt
and luxury accommodations â€" are costing 1,100 Israel New Shekels (around
$283).

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.
