LAMB OF GOD, HATEBREED AND LORDI AMONG FIRST ARTISTS TO SIGN ON FOR OZZFEST

Lamb of God, Hatebreed and Finnish act Lordi are among the first bands to sign on for this year's ground-breaking FREE-FEST. Lamb of God and Lordi will play on the main stage, along with Ozzy. Hatebreed will headline the smaller second stage. Acts announced for the second stage, so far, include Mondo Generator, Ankla, Circus Diablo, Nile and The Showdown.

These are only the first artists who have stepped forward to be part of this ground-breaking touring extravaganza, with more artists to be announced in the coming weeks for the main and second stages.

OZZFEST will hit 24 cities, beginning July 12, 2007 in Seattle, WA. The tour was originally announced to start July 7 in Southern California but had to be moved to accommodate the extension of OZZY's European tour.

To gain entry into this year's OZZFEST, fans will go to www.ozzfest.com or www.livenation.com to find links that will direct them to special sponsor sites where tickets can be secured. Tickets will be available for download on June 12. Stay tuned to www.ozzfest.com and www.livenation.com in the coming weeks for more ticketing information.
