DISCLAIMER - NOT THE STICKS I USE
A few months ago, a drumstick became available in the marketplace. The stick is made by Vic Firth (the same company I use for my own sticks) and has Black Sabbath printed along the length of the stick and the Sabbath logo at the butt end of the stick. The drumstick is licensed by Signatures Network.
Buyer Beware. Sabbath fans, drum students, fellow drummers, or anyone who thinks that by purchasing this stick they1ll have an authentic pair of drumsticks as played by yours truly, Bill Ward. These sticks are not used by me, and I have no association to the making, endorsement, or promotion of this stick.
Thank you,
Bill Ward

Billward.com site Update
As you've already noticed by seeing this news entry, there's been an update to Bill Ward's website, and it's this new news system. Folks who are familiar with my Black Sabbath website should be familiar with this, as it's the same software I'm using over there. I've converted the news system to blog software, which has the benefit of making the news more flexible to you. You can now view old news entries by category, and best of all, you can now search through old news entries by using the search box.

Rock 50 dates through October posted
The latest dates for Bill's monthly radio show have been posted to the Rock 50 page on the website. The newly posted dates cover from May through October of 2005.
This is Bill's last live show for a while, as he is scheduled to depart to Europe on April 20th. While Bill is away, the summer shows on Rock 50 May, June, July, August and September will all be pre-recorded with plenty of hardcore metal, classic metal, hard rock and blues, and surprises. The July show will be a "Best of" show, playing Bill's all-time favorite rock & hardcore songs.
