RANDY CASTILLO Benefit Concert To Be Held In Cleveland - Sep. 24, 2005
Drummer Tommy Amato will join Cleveland rock bands for a very special concert to offer their support to the family of fellow musician Randy Castillo, who passed away from cancer. Randy played drums for OZZY OSBOURNE, MÖTLEY CRÜE and LITA FORD. Tommy Amato will reunite with his former bandmates for a special evening of live classic rock and roll on Sunday October 2, at The Agora.

Some of the bands on the bill will be legendary Cleveland-based rock bands such as SOUVENIR, LOVERS LANE, ANDY GEROME, STAR FLEET and BEAU COUP. Headlining will be Tommy Amato, joined by many surprise guest drummers for an unforgettable "drummers' jam" set, not to be missed. The concert will be an all-day music marathon beginning at 6:00 p.m. and will feature original music as well as classic rock favorites like GENESIS, YES, PINK FLOYD, LED ZEPPELIN and more. Local and national merchants, as well as many celebrities in the music, film, television, entertainment and sport industries are pulling together to donate some very cool, one-of-a-kind and rare merchandise, which will be on display for silent auction. All bidding and items will be awarded by 10:00 p.m. when the auction closes. Raffles, door prizes and giveaways will also be part of the fundraising fun.

This does not appear to be a benefit for Randy or his family. It appears the world famous Tommy Amato is tacking Randy's name onto a cause he has just because RC died of cancer. If RC's family has given Amato their blessing to use his name it should be included in this post. Very misleading....

And, again - who the fuck is Tommy Amato?

Randy Castillo was the best drummer Ozzy ever had followed closely by Mike Bordin. He could play drums and put on a fucking good show at the same time.

Please, Bordin is much better than Castillo ever was. Then again, I don't expect much worthwhile from a metallicrap fan.

COMMENT | Bordin better than Castillo?
