A few short web site notes
Posted on Aug.26, 2003 under About the site
As regular site visitors have noticed, not much has gone on lately. Beyond Aston is still not out, as Bill continues to tweak and work on it. At this point, I do not have a firm release date for it, but once I find out something, believe me, this will be the first place it’s posted.
The Merchandise page is now back in operation. On it, you can purchase Bill’s most recent CD, “When the Bough Breaks” (with the correct cover art) as well as a couple of posters. Bill hopes to have more merchandise up eventually, but for now, you can order these things now. You can also pay online with a credit card through Paypal – an option that wasn’t available before.

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
