Wylde, who recently said his sacking by Ozzy Osbourne was water under the bridge, is preparing to start work on a new Black Label Society album. He says he sees a positive side to the end of his drinking days.
He tells I Heart Guitar: “We were out on the road with Mudvayne and Static-X and we were having a blast on that thing.

Blaze Bayley attacked in Greece
The Blaze Bayley band were attacked on a street in Greece during their current tour, frontman Bayley has reported.

narrowly missing someone inside.
In his tour blog Bayley reports: “Agrinio was crazy – a really intimate packed-out gig with plenty of crazy fans and the odd crowd-surfer.
“After the fantastic gig we stopped on the way back to the hotel at a late-night pie shop. I was talking to support act Fury UK’s manager when two drugged-up youths on a scooter drove towards him.
