Today is the 30th anniversary of the tragic death Randy Rhoads. Randy was and always will be my guitar hero. Randy Rhoads 12-06-56 to 03-19-82. R.I.P.

"WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT NOISE MAN...I THINK IT WAS THE E.T !!!." OZZY OSBOURNE.

R.I.P RANDY.

Ozzy was so distraught, Bernie Torme was playing with him the next week. Then Brad Gillis two months later for SOTD.

Today is a sad day for many.
On the other hand, the wifes cousin was born on this day 30 years ago, but can't play Randy worth a fuck.....

I used to have a Randy poster in my room and he was holding a Les Paul. I used to think LP's we're HUGE because it looked that way on Randy.

I used to have one wall covered with pictures of Randy and Ozzy from guitar mags and posters and stuff... the other wall was covered with Judas Priest posters and pictures. And by covered I mean collage type covered where you can't even see the walls.

[CowboyFromHell]

Not the reason I picked up the guitar but definitely a source of inspiration. If there's in fact a heaven, he's in good company at least.

R.I.P. Randy
