Ozzy just finished an 11-month world tour, so I think he deserves a summer off," Sharon Osbourne, the brains behind Ozzfest, said in a statement. "We're going to be a stadium destination festival for now — we have gone past doing the sheds every summer. We've given everyone else the blueprint, and we have to keep evolving Ozzfest. This is just the beginning. Ozzy has great relationships with all of the bands that have played Ozzfest. We're the only real festival for harder-edge bands, and these artists have been very loyal to us — there is lots of love on this lineup."
Tickets for this year's Ozzfest will go on sale May 31.
Rumors that Ozzfest would be diminished to a two-day destination festival began earlier this year, after Warped Tour mastermind Kevin Lyman announced the inaugural run of his Rockstar Energy Mayhem festival, which boasts a lineup featuring Slipknot, Disturbed, Mastodon, DragonForce, Airborne, Five Finger Death Punch, 36 Crazyfists, Machine Head, Black Tide, Suicide Silence, the Red Chord and Walls of Jericho. That tour will get under way July 9 in Seattle and runs through August 19 in Buffalo, New York.
Many speculated that the competition would be too much for the Ozzfest camp, which offered free admission to last year's gigs. None of the bands that played last year's Ozzfest were paid, outside of merchandise sales, and they were encouraged to play shows on off-nights. In recent years, critics have slammed Ozzfest, saying that the festival's influence and grandeur has started to wane.
This tour is doomed, oh wait it's not a tour anymore LOL!

She didn't say that you had "sheds" in your state. that's called a guilty conscience
she said they're all sheds.

Kevin Lyman is not a master mind, and the vans warpt tour is shit. They have three bands playing at same time. alot bands don't get exposeron their tours. And half of the bands only play certain venues. And lets not forget he made taste of chaos tour too. maybe its just me but that sucked. The only thing Kevin lyaman did great job on is rockstar tour, and lets face it without slipknot that tour would not be as big. I hope some else steps up and fill the void ozz fest might be leaving. And the key word is might. Next year is a long time away who fuck knows whats going to happen.

You don't like Warped Tour because it's music you don't like.
I've yet to be disappointed by it, and one of my friend's bands got a LOT of exposure on Warped.

ozz fest gave to Mudvanye, system of a down, and killswtich. a lot bands triple CD sells after ozz fest. I am not saying mudvanye wouldn't made it. but it's interesting that small bands join ozz fest then next year headlining their own shows.
