ON THIS DATE IN BACK IN 2019, THE HEAVY METAL PIONEERING ROCKERS BLACK SABBATH WERE HONORED IN THEIR HOMETOWN OF BIRMINGHAM ENGLAND WITH A LITERAL HEAVY METAL BENCH THAT FEATURES IMAGES OF THE BAND MEMBER’S FACES WITH THEIR NAMES ETCHED BELOW…GEEZER, OZZY, TONY, AND BILL ALONG WITH THE PHRASE “MADE IN BIRMINGHAM 1968” THE YEAR THE BAND WAS FOUNDED. THE BEND SITS ON A BRIDGE ABOVE A CANAL AND IS NOW REFERRED TO AS BLACK SABBATH BRIDGE AND HAS ATTRACTED THOUSANDS OF BLACK SABBATH FANS AND MEDIA FROM ALL OVER THE GLOBE, BUT THE STAINLESS STEEL BENCH IS SHOWING SOME WEAR AND TEAR SO JUST 4 DAYS AGO THE CITY’S IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT REMOVED THE BENCH FOR RESTORATION. IT TOOK  SEVERAL HOURS TO DISMANTLE THE BENCH AND 3 DUDES JUST TO CARRY THE HEAD PORTION…PROVING BLACK SABBATH ARE TRULY HEAVY METAL! I AM KINDA SURPRISED THEY DIDN’T MAKE THE BENCH OUT OF IRON…CAUSE, WELL…”IRON MAN” CRANK IT UP AND ROCK OUT TO TODAY’S ROXY’S ROCK REWIND FROM THE PRIDE OF BIRMINGHAM ENGLAND…BLACK SABBATH…ON 105.7 THE X!
