How does Ozzy bring world peace? I found out at an Anvil concert a couple of months ago. Anvil was SUPERGREAT, decent beer was available at the bar, and there was a good crowd of interesting people there. A friend of ours was there wearing his West Ham United scarf (this is a London football team that we learned about & started digging, from being fans of the Cockney Rejects), and after the concert when the lights went back on and we were finishing our beers, I noticed a guy kind of rubbernecking us---actually rubbernecking Steve, our friend with the scarf. After approaching us from a couple different angles, he finally said something. Turns out Steve flushed out the one visiting British Millwall fan in Portland that night! Millwall and WestHam are hardcore rivals, but when he saw my significant other George's Black Sabbath t-shirt, he thought we might be all right after all! We had a friendly chat, and he made me promise not to reveal his identity, as he wouldn't be caught dead speaking civilly to a WestHam fan... What happens in Portland stays in Portland, pal! Thank you, Ozzy and Black Sabbath, for preventing bloodshed, or at least some sillyassed dirty looks. I'll post some relevant pictures (no, not of this mysterious, remarkably open-minded Millwall fan) soon.
