Ozzy Calls Ex-Guitarist’s Shooting ‘Another Senseless Act Of Gun Violence’

Ozzy Osbourne has reacted to the news that his former guitar player, Jake E. Lee, was shot multiple times Tuesday while walking his dog in Las Vegas.
Calling the attack “another senseless act of gun violence,” Osbourne says, "It's been 37 years since I've seen Jake E. Lee, but that still doesn't take away from the shock of hearing what happened to him today. I just hope he’ll be OK.”
Lee, who appeared on Osbourne’s albums Bark at the Moon and The Ultimate Sin, is expected to make a full recovery. No arrests have been made in the shooting, which investigators believe was a random act.

Sammy Hagar Faces Criticism

Sammy Hagar is responding to criticism about cutting his performance short.
In an Instagram post Hagar wrote, “Thank you, Vegas. See you in Cabo the calm before the storm. I’ll be ready for you.”
A fan commented, “What happened Sammy? Were you too tired last night? You cut short even though the show wasn’t long enough, we still had a great time. Keep on rocking.”
Hagar clarified, “Hold on now, we played one hour and 40 minutes and we were only supposed to play one hour and 30 minutes. The Casinos don’t like you to play over one and a half hours. Anyway, I had fun.”
Another commenter expressed frustration, saying, “I’ve never gotten tix. Too bad you can’t regulate it so people that have been before fall to the bottom of the list. Give everyone a chance.”
In response, Hagar explained, “We’ve tried everything my friend: from free tickets, first come, first serve, the lottery. We got dinner shows, first come, first serve, still today. That’s why I did two shows in Vegas, so 5,000 more people could make the birthday bash. Still working on it at 77. Peace and happiness, my friend.”

Sammy Hagar recently faced some criticism after ending a show earlier than expected. The reason? He was simply too tired to continue. Fans in Las Vegas were disappointed, but Hagar didn’t shy away from addressing the situation. Taking to Instagram, Hagar thanked the crowd and assured them he’d b...
