The frontman claims the band's former drummer couldn't remember what to do.
Speaking to Mojo, Osbourne claims that "We looked at Bill, and he couldn't remember what the f**k we were
doing. But he didn't come clean and say, 'I can't cut this gig, but can
we work something out, guys, where I'll come on but with another drummer
backing me up?' Or, 'I'll come and play a few songs.' That would have
been cool."
"You know them yellow f***ing stick-on memo notes? He had them all over
his f***ing drums," continues Osbourne. "I was like, 'What the f**k's that
for, Bill?' He said, 'I can't remember what I'm doing.' I go, 'How are
you gonna remember out of those 500,000 bits of paper stuck all over
your kit, which one you're looking at, Bill?'"
