BLACK SABBATH Drummer, Wife Lose Baby
- Mar. 29, 2006
|
|
BLACK SABBATH drummer Bill Ward's official web site has been updated with the following message: " Bill has sent in the the March 2006 edition of his Audio Diary series (the 13th overall entry). This new edition totals 32:29 in length. The subjects discussed in this edition Bill speaks at length on, so there's not as many different subjects as he normally talks about, but what is talked about is talked about in depth. Here's what's going on in this new edition. * Wilson Pickett, who has recently died. He also talks about how it's not always easy for some older musicians still trying to make a living at their craft. * Talks a lot about BLACK SABBATH's induction into the Hall of Fame; lots of issues relating to the HOF ceremonies and other bands who went in with SABBATH. Bill also talks about his appreciation for Geezer, Tony, & Oz. Loved METALLICA, both in their speeches and in their playing of SABBATH songs. * A small update on 'Beyond Aston' [ Bill's long-awaited solo album]. * Bill talks about a couple of deaths in his family recently. One was his wife's grandmother, and the other, unfortunately was the baby that Bill and his wife were expecting. "If you listen to Bill's audio diary, he talks a lot about the loss of the baby. Bill and his wife had found it was to be a boy, and they had chosen the name Bram, after Bram Stoker. Bill found out about this when he was deplaning from returning from the trip for SABBATH's Hall of Fame induction. "Naturally, as you can expect, it has not been an easy time for the Ward family. In the diary, Bill talks about sending in emails and letters of condolence. Here are the contact details if you choose to contact Bill regarding this matter. Via Email: astoncrossmusic@aol.com Via Snail Mail: Aston Cross Music, Inc. 2633 Lincoln Blvd. Box #100 Santa Monica, CA 90405-4619 "If you wish your letter not to be opened and read, please mark it 'Private' on the outside. Further details on 'private letters' and what will happen with all the emails and letters are in the audio diary. Please check it out." To download the audio diary, visit www.billward.com.

sorry to hear about that bill. my condolensces to you and your wife.
was bill the one with one of the chicks from drain sth or a different one? i know someone in sabbath had hooked up with one of them but can't remember who.
and trashwhore-1987: if you read it you dumbass it said he was 60, not his wife. i'm sure she's younger than he is. probably in her 30's. read the full post before you comment like you know what the fuck you're talking about. fuckin idiot.

I don't think he was related to Wilson Pickett.. he was a black singer from the 50's or 60's... he was going to name his baby Bram, not Wilson Pickett

an abortion is when someone has a baby REMOVED PURPOSELY while still in the womb. this was a miscarraige. still a life, still a beating heart. they had already named the kid for fucks sake. know what the fuck you're talking about before you say something. just because your mommy tells you your special since you rode the short bus in school doesn't mean we need to read your stupid, thoughtless comments.
Disclaimer: If you are reading this and you ride/rode the short bus while you are/were in school, I was not meaning any disrespect to you.

Are afraid to admit that any sort of fetus is a baby at any stage.
They want the right to murder right up until the last second before birth.

boy, does that suck..bills been on a hard road all life from being hooked on the demon alcohol, being snowblind, homeless and broke, having tons of jokes played on him by ozzy and co.
but this is no joke. and to hear such news after leaving the hall induction. talk about going from a mental high to one of the lowest points. and to think, bill is still firing bullets!
its very hard to get over something like this, but im sure bill will--despite what some rude fucks on this board said--this is not dave draiman, but mr bill fucking ward! if i prayed. bill, then you would be in my prayers.

some common denceny being heaped towards Bill and his wife during these very sad days. It's almost enough to give me a glimmer of hope that some of the posters here are actually human's after all.... Then along comes someone like trashordie-1987 who reminds me to add his name to the long list of botched abortions who think they have a opinion worth sharing around here. And trashordie-1987...The word is retarded...not "retarted". And there was no need to post it 2X. We already know how stupid you are without you having to repeat things.

You are a dumbass. I would bother to tell you that abortions are intentional, and clearly this was not, but you're too fucking arrogant to ever reconsider some of the stupid shit you post on this website, nomatter how uneducated it sounds.
Mr. Ward, you are a legend. A sincere prayer goes out to you and your wife from this American metalhead.
