Black Sabbath to headline British Summertime Hyde Park Festival! New message from Tony!

Our Tony posted a following message on his Official Facebook page, before the Sabbath tour in America started:

"It’s really good to be back in rehearsals with the band, we’re just polishing things up having not played live for over three months. 
Must have been all the shows last year because I remembered the songs better than I thought I would. 

We’re all hoping it’s not going to be too cold in Canada, my memories of recording “Never Say Die” in Toronto are mostly about the weather! It makes me appreciate all of you that can live and survive in the cold (or heat come to that), anyway, we’ll be doing our best to raise the temperature every night. To finish up this part of our tour we’ll be going from the cold of Edmonton to outdoors in Los Angeles, and that’ll be strange."

Black Sabbath will headline the British Summer Time festival in Hyde Park in July.

Black Sabbath resume their “13” world tour with a series of North American shows starting March 31 in New York. On April 15, the band will release “The Complete Studio Albums (1970-1978)”, an 8-disc box set featuring their 1970s catalog. The package was released on iTunes in January, and a variation of the set (which also included DVDs) was first issued in 2004.

The box set contains all of the studio albums Black Sabbath recorded for Warner Bros. Records during the 1970s, including its iconic, eponymous debut (1970), the multi-platinum landmark "Paranoid" (1970), the platinum albums "Master Of Reality" (1971), "Vol. 4" (1972), and "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath" (1973), as well as the gold albums "Sabotage" (1975), "Technical Ecstasy" (1976), and "Never Say Die!" (1978).
