Rock 50 March Preview
Posted on Mar.12, 2015 under Rock 50
H! Everyone,
Our radio show airs this Saturday, March 14, 2014.
It’s Metal all the way, with the exception of the drum segue which will feature Hughie Flint of Blues Breakers fame. We’ll be playing “nearly” all the now historically famous John Mayall and The Blues Breakers album. Hughie Flint was one of the drummers that influenced my playing when I was in my late teens. It’ll be a treat to listen to this fantastic British Blues band of the 1960’s.
Check us out if you get a moment. We’ll be kicking ass with some of the best Metal in the world.
Stay safe. Stay Strong.

Hi Everybody.
It’s Bill here. First off, I want to thank you all for the support you’ve given me throughout the years. I love to play– whether it’s playing drums in Black Sabbath, making music with my own band or working with other musicians, period. Being able to do what I love for my whole life, pretty much, has been an honour and privilege.
When I started playing in Sabbath, there was an energy of truth about us. We believed in what we were saying, the music we were making and the lives we were living. As time has moved on, I’ve nurtured and tried to save a lot of what I learnt playing in Sabbath. During the more recent years at the Ozzfest concerts, I’ve found myself immersed in the musical rewards of playing in such a unique and devastatingly, powerfully effective Metal band. Sabbath have been, and are, my greatest teachers, and I am forever grateful for the musical journey so far.
Today, I love what’s happening in music. I’ve been given the rare opportunity to play bands I like – Classic and newer Metal – on our Rock 50 radio show. These bands energize me.
I am humbled to know many of you. Music lives and brings and maintains life. Music has always brought me through.
Stay strong, safe and live. Enjoy the site.
Long Live Metal.
--Bill Ward
