Well Wishes to Tony Iommi
Hello Kiddies,
If there wasn't enough bad news in the world, this gem has been reported all over the net. This particular post is from the Black Sabbath fan page.
Tony Iommi has cancer
This just posted from the Official Black Sabbath Facebook page.
With the news that Black Sabbath's Tony Iommi has been diagnosed with the early stages of lymphoma, his bandmates would like everyone to send positive vibes to the guitarist at this time. Iommi is currently working with his doctors to establish the best treatment plan--the "IRON MAN" of Rock & Roll remains upbeat and determined to make a full and successful recovery.
This comes as Black Sabbath--Ozzy Osbourne (vocals), Tony Iommi (guitar), Geezer Butler (bass) and Bill Ward (drums)--are writing and recording their first album in 33 years in Los Angeles (still set for release this fall) with producer Rick Rubin. They will now go to the UK to continue to work with Tony. Further information will be released as it becomes available.
UPDATE: If you'd like to send a get well email to Tony, you can do so by emailing getwelltony@black-sabbath.com - Please don't send other stuff than get well wishes. They'll get deleted. It's just for this subject. Thanks.
It's a sad thing considering we lost RJD to cancer only a few short years ago. It seems though that Tone has caught this in time and will kick it without much trouble. With the Original Sabs back together and recording at last, this is the last thing we need to slow the Iron Man down. BTW Tony's bio will be reviewed in the AMBR soon.
Get well Tony.
