Zakk Wylde comments on his status in Ozzy's band

David "Gus" Griesinger of BackstageAxxess.com recently conducted an interview with Zakk Wylde on his position in Ozzy Osbourne amid rumors of the contrary.

When asked about the recent news that Ozzy was seeking to replace Zakk, he stated "Everything's cool, man. I mean, Ozzy's always jammed with other people — since we did 'Down To Earth' and all that other stuff. So it's no big deal. If Ozzy's gonna play with someone else, what am I gonna do anyways? At the end of the day, when we did the Down To Earth record, Oz had other people coming in and writing with him. [I was like], 'Boss, knock yourself out,' you know what I mean?! What we're supposed to do is there's this date in August — August 20, I guess, down in Anaheim [BlizzCon convention] — and then after that, we're supposed to finish the [new Ozzy] record up in September or something like that. We did 16 or 18 songs or something like that, so we'll write some more, finish the record, and then we're supposed to do like a year[-long] world tour."
