(Rockdirt) Titled "Last Show For Maiden", Sharon Osbourne has issued the following statement via the official [Sharon]fest web site, Ozzfest.com: "Iron Maiden were chosen for the Ozzfest tour because the Ozzfest committee felt they were a good band, plus the fact that they had not done shows in the U.S. for some time. From day one, Bruce Dickinson started berating Ozzy and belittling the Ozzfest audience. He stated he 'didn't need a reality show to give him credibility'; 'we're not just some fu**ing reunion band'; and continuously complained about the sound system, saying that when he comes back to America he'll have a better one.

Yea well f you Sharon, we are so sick of your botoxed facelifted mug always screaming for anyone to listen to what you have to say. Funny, no other bands are saying anything, it's just you, as usual, shooting off your fat mouth.
Maybe if you husband wasnt such a drinking pill popping loser, he could defend himself, but since you have all the balls in the family, I guess its your job

Sharon set this all up, even her children were the ones egging Maiden. Stop the lies, boycott Ozzfest and anything Sharon touches. See the forums for Maiden on their website for fan details!
