Book Soup welcomes the Prince of Darkness tonight, and we don't mean the devil, or even Michael Eisner, but rather Black Sabbath frontman, reality television star, and crucifix pendant connoisseur Ozzy Osbourne as he signs his brand new book, I Am Ozzy for all the fans out there who can never get enough of him. He's been pretty open about his sex, drugs and rock 'n roll life, as well as his softer domestic side, but the book promises even more surprising stops on the Crazy Train.

Book Soup says…

Ozzy Osbourne presents and signs I Am Ozzy.

 

Yes. You read that correctly. Ozzy will be at Book Soup, signing books in his own blood.*

 

"Osbourne freely admits that his dizzying life of excess should have killed him: "People ask me how come I'm still alive, and I don't know what to say. When I was growing up, if you'd have put me up against a wall with the other kids from my street and asked me which one of us was gonna make it to the age of sixty, which one of us would end up with five kids and four grandkids and houses in Buckinghamshire and Beverly Hills, I wouldn't have put money on me, no f**king way. But here I am: ready to tell my story, in my own words, for the first time. A lot of it ain't gonna be pretty. I've done some bad things in my time. I've always been drawn to the dark side, me. But I ain't the devil. I'm just John Osbourne: a working-class kid from Aston, who quit his job in the factory and went looking for a good time." -(Hachette)



*Ozzy Osbourne will not be signing in his own blood, and will only be signing copies of I Am Ozzy. No memorabilia, albums, CDs, guitars, or anything else. Photos from the line are okay, but no posed photos.
