Ozzy's Real Reason For Firing Zakk Wylde
. Osbourne tells Guitar World magazine, "Zakk came in at the beginning of the new one (record), but he was still drinking. When you're drunk and somebody else is drinking, it's OK, but when you're sober and somebody's blabbering away in your ear, it ain't. I mean, Zakk's a great player and I love him. I love his playing. But in the end, it came to the point that I had to get another guitarist. "It was hard for me to be around someone who is actively drinking. I heard he's not drinking anymore. I don't know if that's true or not." Ozzy said. "I love his playing; he's one of the greats. But it was the drink getting the better of him. I couldn't watch him die. In one sick respect, it was good for me to see, because that's what I was like, and worse. Believe me, if I started drinking now you'd think, 'F**k, this is b**locks! I've got to get out of here.' - Jam! Report 2010 is almost halfway gone. Join us this holiday weekend as we look back at the top stories from the first half of this year.
