MAY 5, 2009, 8:41 pm
(West Hollywood, Calif. – May 5, 2009) The second annual Sunset Strip Music Festival (SSMF) is confirmed for Sept. 10-12, 2009. In addition to The Strip’s six signature music venues hosting diverse music lineups, SSMF 2009 will also include an outdoor street festival component with the closure of Sunset Boulevard between Doheny Drive to San Vicente Boulevard on Saturday, Sept. 12, from 2 – 9 p.m. This is the first time a significant portion of The Sunset Strip has been shut down for a music event, and it will allow for outdoor stages and increased attendance.
Rock legend Ozzy Osbourne will be honored at a tribute event Thursday, September 10 that kicks off the three-day festival. The tribute event honors icons who have made an impact on the legacy of The Sunset Strip. On Ozzy’s first U.S. tour with Black Sabbath in 1970, the band performed a five-night stand (November 11-15) at the legendary Whisky A Go-Go. Ozzy Osbourne’s career has spanned four decades and his music is as relevant today as ever. The multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning, Rock and Roll Hall of Famer has sold over 100 millions album worldwide—50 with Black Sabbath and as many as a solo artist—and in 2003 was honored with a star on Hollywood Boulevard’s “Walk of Fame.”
“We are extremely excited to honor rock icon Ozzy Osbourne, and we are thrilled the City of West Hollywood once again supported the Sunset Strip Music Festival,” noted Todd Steadman, executive director of the Sunset Strip Music Festival. “This year’s street closure will allow us to expand on the success of last year’s inaugural fest and accommodate more fans and festival-goers.”
Friday and Saturday nights of SSMF will feature live music performances from a mix of established and up-and-coming artists at all six venues (Cat Club, House of Blues, Key Club, The Roxy Theatre, Viper Room and Whisky A Go-Go). Saturday will feature a daytime street fest with multiple outdoor stage performances before the clubs open their doors for night performances, and the Mondrian hotel is also onboard for SSMF 2009 and will host a VIP c**ktail event.
“SSMF is a great opportunity for us to celebrate The Sunset Strip's rich musical history. It also allows us to recognize the clubs and artists, new and old, who make Sunset Boulevard an international destination,” stated West Hollywood Mayor Pro Tempore John Heilman. “Our first event created so much excitement and enthusiasm, and I know the upcoming event will be terrific.”
More details about the Sunset Strip Music Festival 2009, including artist lineup and ticket information, will be announced.

Nice idea
I think that's a good idea to have on the sunset.
I think if we can have it on the beach, it will be wonderful.
Every body will enjoy the white sandy beach & the blue sky.
I think it will be an unforgettable memory.

Congratulations Ozzy. You deserved the honor. Is there a list out yet for concerts in 2010?

Despite only a modest investment from US record label Warner Bros. Records, Black Sabbath met with swift and enduring success. Built around Tony Iommi's guitar riffs, Geezer Butler's lyrics, and topped by Osbourne's eerie vocals, early records such as their eponymous debut album and Paranoid sold huge numbers, as well as getting airplay.

He deserves it
He deserves the accolades, even though the last five years have been an exercise in legacy destruction. After hearing the new Heaven and Hell CD, he BADLY needs to record with Sabbath one more time. GPS Tracker

Having gotten a chance to actually attend this event, (not that it is over), I have to say it was quite amazing! Its a good thing they blocked off so much of the street cause they needed it with all the people that were there. If you weren't careful you practically got ran over! Either way, it was great event!

Well done Ozzy I think it's great that you are being honoured this way. I am so glad to hear the mayor talking about you in such glowing terms. When you first started out all those years ago he would have rather cut off his own leg with a rusty axe than say something good about you and the Sabath. How times change.
