About Me


I am the vocalist for Sack Sabbath the only true Black Sabbath tribute band in the UK. Check out www.sacksabbath.co.uk. We pay homage to the 4 original sabs. We are up & down the UK on a regular basis and occasionally in Europe. Our set is culled from 1970-76 'cos that is the Sabbath golden era...at least as far as I'm concered...we just love playing all those tunes ...The show is dedicated to Ozzy, Tony, Geezer and Bill without whom we would have got a proper jobs and been boring, normal, responsible, human beings!! Thanks boys...we still fuckin' luv ya!!!
I'd love to hear from fellow Saboteurs and anyone who has seen us or might be interested in what we do..
Excuse me now...I'm just off to practice my tourettes, eat some rodents, shoot some chickens & strangle the wife!!
