Bummer! But what is cool... Joey Belladonna & Band, Saturday April 19, 2008, 7PM showtime, Element Nightclub. Oh and Wierd Al plays the Royal Theatre on August 21st, 2008 (he must like playing here).

One question about the High Tide Entertainment website, why do they list gigs which have already taken place?!? - Thu, 10 Apr 2008 12:09pm Edited: Thu, 10 Apr 2008 12:12pm

Anyone have any info on this? I'm bummed. Really like Testament's new album and was so looking forward to seeing the original lineup. Could the band not get into Canada for some reason? What is the refund policy from Lyle's? Do I get my f'in service charge back too? - Thu, 10 Apr 2008 1:04pm

Apparently they almost went broke when they last played the Curling Club in 2000. Lemmy rocks at Pool! BTW: New Testament CD is amazing! - Tue, 15 Apr 2008 11:24am Edited: Tue, 15 Apr 2008 11:40am

THE UNION AND GOLDENVOICE CANADA ARE PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE
THE ONLY EVENT OF ITS KIND IN NORTH AMERICA

OZZY OSBOURNE PRESENTS
THE MONSTERS OF ROCK
Saturday July 26, 2008
McMahon Stadium
1817 Crowchild Trail N.W., Calgary, AB

Doors 12 noon - general admission floor, reserved stands
Tickets $119.50 - $49.50 + S/C, on sale Friday April 18 at 12 noon at Ticketmaster

Something’s coming over the mountain. You better take cover, Canada, because the Monsters of Rock are coming your way! Rock legend Ozzy Osbourne has drawn upon the sinister power of Ozzfest to create the biggest, meanest, loudest f**king rock festival you can imagine - THE MONSTERS OF ROCK. This one-day celebration of the heaviest music in the universe is landing exclusively in the Great White North at Calgary’s McMahon Stadium on Saturday July 26!

Ozzy Osbourne makes his long-awaited return to Calgary, doing what he loves best - making rock fans go f**king crazy! The Prince of Darkness will hit the stage with band mates Zakk Wylde, Michael Bordin, Blasko and Adam Wakeman to perform a blistering set of classics from his 38-year career as rock’s purveyor of heavy metal, including songs from his latest earth-shattering (and certified platinum) album, “Black Rain.”

Judas Priest are truly iconic figures in metal, having spent 30 years writing & recording classic tracks and performing spectacular live shows. The band have sold in excess of 30 million albums, and thrilled audiences around the world. The definitive line up of Rob Halford (vocals), Glenn Tipton (guitar), K.K Downing (guitar), Ian Hill (bass) and Scott Travis (drums), who reformed in July 2003, will release their new album, “Nostradamus,” this year.

Serj Tankian is best known as the soaring voice of Ozzfest veterans System of a Down, but he has successfully struck out on his own with a new sonic assault; Hatebreed have redefined hard rock as a uplifting force against the ills of the world; Cavalera Conspiracy is the latest project for Sepultura founders (and brothers) Max and Igor Cavalera; Shadows Fall always provide a bracing blast of extreme metal in their furious performances; Voivod will reunite for a rare live performance, which will include a tribute to the band’s original guitarist, the late Denis "Piggy" d'Amour.

Also included in this stunning, hard-hitting line-up are American metal warriors Testament, Canadian dragon-slaying heroes 3 Inches Of Blood, Montreal’s swaggering headbangers Priestess, and Vancouver’s metal jesters Zimmers Hole. (More bands TBA).

THE MONSTERS OF ROCK will provide metal fans a unique opportunity to see the greatest champions of hard rock together on a single stage. No other music event this year will come close the matching the power and intensity of this legendary gathering. Don’t miss your opportunity to take part in hard rock history!

Tickets go on sale Friday April 18 at 12 noon at all Ticketmaster outlets, charge-by-phone, and online at Ticketmaster.ca and UnionEvents.com for $119.50 - 49.50. VIP packages, which will include express admission, laminate, floor access and a private hospitality area, will also be available for a limited time (must be 18 and older to purchase). - Wed, 16 Apr 2008 5:19am

So they would cancel a whole tour to do a one off festival date in Calgary? - Wed, 16 Apr 2008 11:37am
