Bill wants your questions
As regular Bill Ward site visitors know, Bill has been doing a monthly radio programme over the Internet. Well, with 2005 being the 35th anniversary of Black Sabbath's first album release, Bill wants to do something special with his programme.
To this, he wants to collect your questions via email and will read and answer some of them on his show. So, if you have a question for Bill Ward, please email it to the following address: rock50@billward.com. Just make sure the question is about Black Sabbath. :)
Then make sure to listen in to the February 5th edition of "Rock 50" and see if Bill reads your question on the air!
Bill will stop taking emails on Thursday Feb 3rd at 4PM EST, so get your questions in!

Bill's Rock 50 reruns
For awhile now, Bill Ward has been doing a monthly radio program out of WPMD (a college radio station at Cerritos College in California). This morning comes word that Bill Ward's previous programs will be rerun in a special programming block.
WPMD.org's "alternative stream" presents a Bill Ward Marathon. Every "Rock 50" show that the Black Sabbath drummer has done on WPMD over the last three years will be played, in order and repeated, from February 1st through the 8th.
From February 8th through the 15th, the WPMD.org "alternative stream" will celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the demise of the LA heavy metal legend -- Pure Rock 105.5 KNAC-FM. The celebration will include full shows, special programs, special guests and historical tidbits from the final days leading up to the end on February 15, 1995, when KNAC-FM left the air. On February 15th the final 8 hours will play in the same time slot that closed out the station in 1995 -- from 6am to 2pm. Special guests in those final hours include Lars Ulrich and James Hetfield of Metallica, along with air personalities from the entire history of "Pure Rock" 105.5 KNAC-FM.
