Bill Ward.....
« on: July 10, 2019, 05:46:13 AM »
....is open minded to playing with Sabbath again..

http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/bill-ward-on-black-sabbath-i-would-be-very-open-minded-to-any-ideas-about-playing-together-in-the-future/


It's really funny how Bill is always "open minded" about playing with the band when the band IS NOT TOURING or has any ideas of touring...But when the band is willing and able Bill always finds some bs reason to step down...  ;D

Anyways this a mute point as Sabbath is no more.

^^^^^^
Agreed on all points.  The only thing I could possibly see happening is a 1 day get together, but that's it.

Indeed...I am thinking there might be a possibility for a one off show on Feb 13th of next year but even that's a very small one.

I couldn't see him getting through rehearsals for even just one show.

Would be cool though if they could get together for a live in the studio jam like the Angelic Studios session that was included on The End movie. Something us fans could could have forever!

They should all get back together to do a fully-arranged, tuned-down, truly doomy version of "Blow on the Jug" for Red Nose Day. Every true Sabbath fan loves that song, and it would be a great laugh to do it up like that.

Hahaaa!

Almost 10 years later and Bill still manages to bitch and moan about an "unsignable contract"

He needs to come to terms with everything... if he's sidelined with a surgery, the band has undrummable drums...

Bill. Come on. You can't be above it if you keep putting yourself down in it.

Actually if you take the time to read the interview it’s about 3 or 4 page career retrospective interview...So you’d think that’s an obvious and unavoidable subject that was gonna be raised in a career retrospective.

Anyhow, Bill’s answer was "I made it well known to everybody who was important that I wanted something that was fair, and it just didn't happen," explains Ward. "Even if someone had held a gun to my head, I couldn't have signed that contract. It was one of the most regrettable things I've ever gone through in my life and I was particularly sad for the fans over how things ended up. But that hasn't stopped me from loving the guys. SABBATH is where my heart lies."

But in typical and true Blabbermouth style they pulled only a mi-nute portion of the interview from the magazine that actually conducted it and go for the clickbait headline.

It's funny how Bill's "career retrospective" always comes down to the unsignable contract!

Not really, it’s just the retrospective a lot of people like to highlight. I’ll always remember him for being a kind soul and an amazing drummer/percussionist.
