I sit back and I close my eyes
Lookin' back at all the lows and all the highs
Through the black and white and in between
All the miles I've walked, the wars I've fought and all I've seen
It all seems like yesterday
Like a bird, time just flies
No sooner than you said hello
Its time, its time, its time to say goodbye
Consumed by worry, stress and fear
Never learning to live, weighed down by wondering why we're here
Collected memories, all thats in the end
I guess a sense of peace wasn't meant for some, my friend
It all seems like yesterday
Like a bird, time just flies
No sooner than you said hello
Its time, its time, its time to say goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
It all seems like yesterday
Like a bird, time just flies
No sooner than you said hello
Its time, its time, its time to say goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye

35 years ago this week, Ozzy Osbourne released his fifth studio album, NO REST FOR THE WICKED. Following Jake E. Lee's departure from the band in 1987, Ozzy received a demo tape from a young guitarist named Zakk Wylde, who was hired shortly thereafter to record the follow-up to The Ultimate Sin. Zakk's energy meshed well with bassist Bob Daisley and drummer Randy Castillo, and the final product was certified Gold in less than three months (it has since gone double platinum). Unfortunately, Bob Daisley got shafted yet again when he was dismissed from the band at the end of the recording sessions. Ozzy's former band mate from Black Sabbath, Geezer Butler, was then hired to play bass on the supporting world tour.

okay…Guitarist Hand Measurements!!
so i feel like i need to say that obviously these are not 100% accurate, but from just basic knowledge of male hand size and also perusing some guitarist forums on the topic, i can at least say that these are quite likely.
any additional information about the process can be found here
*also a small note is that even though i included width, it’s not very accurate since most are not stretched to full capacity.
now with that out of the way…
