Black Sabbath members Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, and Geezer Butler were asked by Kerrang! magazine if any of them had any regrets about anything that happened during their long careers. Check out their answers:
Ozzy Osbourne: “This is my diary! I played the fool for a long time. I don't drink anymore. I haven't had a drink in four years, I haven't been high in four years, but back when I was, I was constantly making a fool of myself, falling on my butt or doing something crazy.”
Tony Iommi: “You always think there are a thousand things you could have done, but would I be here if I hadn't done them? I could say, 'Oh, I wish I hadn't taken those drugs in the beginning,' but there has to be a reason, something at some point that explains why you did things, you learn something and move on to the next stage. I can complain about things, but there's always a reason behind them.”
Geezer Butler: “It’s hard to say because I believe in destiny, that things were guided by something beyond us. There are things that make me sad, like the way we were robbed in the 70s, things like that, but things worked out. Things happen for a reason, I really want to believe that, and there’s nothing that can change that, so I don’t regret anything. And I’ve always maintained our friendship. It’s like friends going on tour. We’ve been through so much together, we have a really strong bond.”
