Spesso mi chiedo quanto i film western degli anni 60-70 e i cartoni della Disney di quel periodo, abbiano influenzato il settore delle costruzioni, soprattutto nelle zone costiere della Sardegna.
Black Sabbath Announce ‘Back To The Beginning’ Icons of Metal come together to celebrate Black Sabbath's Final Performance July 5th at Villa Park.
All Profits From The Show Will Be SHARED EQUALLY BETWEEN Cure Parkinson’s, Birmingham Children’s Hospital and Acorn Children’s Hospice
The original Black Sabbath – Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward – will play for the first time in 20 years. The band will take to the stage to headline BACK TO THE BEGINNING on July 5th at Villa Park.
The all-star event will celebrate the true creators of heavy metal and will see Ozzy Osbourne play his own short set before joining with Black Sabbath for his final bow.
“It’s my time to go Back to the Beginning... time for me to give back to the place where I was born,” Ozzy Osbourne said. “How blessed am I to do it with the help of people whom I love. Birmingham is the true home of metal. Birmingham Forever.”
Formed in Birmingham in 1968 and going on to become one of most successful metal bands of all time, Black Sabbath have sold over 75 million albums worldwide across their legendary career. Setting the blueprint for the many routes heavy metal took, Black Sabbath’s influence and importance is as vital today as it was in the early 1970s.

I giovani di oggi non lo sanno, ma fino agli anni 80/90 sui treni, veloci o meno veloci, c’erano dei veri e propri salotti con una porta scorrevole che, chiusa, ti separava dal mondo.
6 poltrone o sei poltroncine, rispettivamente di prima o di seconda classe.
La cosa bella di quelle carrozze divise in scompartimenti-salotti era che si faceva subito amicizia.
Era impossibile non farla.
Lo scompartimento era una piccola proiezione di casa propria dove la regola era l’incontro casuale con persone sempre nuove.
Chi ti sedeva a fianco o di fronte immancabilmente dopo le prime parole ci si presentava e ci si conosceva.
Quel piccolo salotto dotato di una finestra sui panorami più belli e più diversi diventava un vero e proprio confessionale.
Qualcosa di inevitabile spingeva a farlo.
Ciascuno, dopo la presentazione, spontaneamente oltre a confidare i motivi del viaggio raccontava esperienze della propria vita.
Fatti che nessuno aveva chiesto di raccontare ma che, si vedeva, si provava piacere nel raccontare.
Capite?
Una persona che minuti prima era un perfetto sconosciuto, diventava così un vecchio amico che con piacere non vedeva l’ora di raccontarsi.
Nessuno si sottraeva a quel piacere.
Tanto grande era la magia di quel salottino viaggiante.

We are all deeply saddened to learn about the passing of Paul Di'Anno earlier today. Paul's contribution to Iron Maiden was immense and helped set us on the path we have been travelling as a band for almost five decades. His pioneering presence as a frontman and vocalist, both on stage and on our first two albums, will be very fondly remembered not just by us, but by fans around the world.
“It’s just so sad he’s gone,” comments Steve Harris. “I was in touch with him only recently as we texted each other about West Ham and their ups and downs. At least he was still gigging until recently, it was something that kept him going, to be out there whenever he could. He will be missed by us all. Rest in peace mate ⚒⚒.”
We were very grateful to have had the chance to catch up a couple of years ago and to spend time with him once more. On behalf of the band, Rod and Andy, and the whole Iron Maiden team, we extend our deepest sympathies to Paul's family and close friends. Rest In Peace Paul.
