TMD has learned from multiple sources today that Greek guitar wizard Kostas Karamitroudis aka Gus G., mostly known for his blazing work in power metal act FIREWIND, has been hand chosen by Ozzy himself to play alongside The Prince of Darkness at the upcoming Blizzcon Convention in Anaheim, California (A celebration of the Warcraft, StarCraft, and Diablo real-time computer/video strategy game franchises taking place August 21-22). It is not known yet which day Ozzy will be playing and introducing Gus G. as the possible new lead axe man in his band.
Gus G. was named as the third of the three best guitar players all over the world in 2003 by the Japanese magazine BURRN!
This is still not an official announcement yet on who will take over Zakk Wylde’s spot on the
upcoming OZZY album and subsequent tours, but it’s looking like this could be the guy!
