Seasons & Episode
Ozzy and Sharon choose a band to tour with Ozzfest.
The three finalists are reunited with their bands and have one day to prepare to perform one song on main stage Ozzfest. But in the end, only two bands will remain.
The mission: Keep up while performing with Black Sabbath vet Bill Ward and survive the Village of the Damned for one night or get out. Two of the roadies will be voted off after all their troubles.
The episode starts with Ahmad arguing when Big Dave sees that he shaved his hair. Then, the finalists are told that they are going to be performing with Ozzfest bands, while at dinner with Ozzy and Sharon at Ozzy's hotel room. But, Chelsea may have a problem since she is assigned to play bass with Bleeding Through, but she has only been playing bass for about a month and a half.
After a day of promoting Dimmu Borgir's Norwegian death metal, the partying gets out of control. The finalists then try to sell their own bands merchandise to some Ozzfest fans. But, no matter how hard they try, someone will still have to go home.
After Ozzy pulls a prank, someone ends up in the emergency room.
The cast is interrogated for impersonating Slip Knot.
The competitors must write a song in 24 hours; Rob Halford of Judas Priest judges the songs.
The crew are told they must bite the heads off of live bats; Sharon and Ozzy make the first elimination.
The eight roadies spice up laundry duty after getting left behind. When they catch up with the bus, a day of work assigned by Big Dave is ahead of them. In the end, they are all forced to vote a band member off the bus, but it's Ozzy and Sharon's decision in the end!
In the first episode, one member from each band will be selected to represent his or her band mates on tour in a set of challenges that could make rock and roll dreams become Ozzfest nightmares. With a motley crew of rock & roll characters all living on the same bus and fighting for the same dream, anything can happen--especially when your bosses are Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Slayer, Slipknot and Hatebreed, among others.
