Publisher's Synopsis
Willie Nelson, Rodney Dangerfield, Neil Diamond, Jack Nicholson and Ozzy Osbourne walk into a bar. Sounds like the first line of a bad joke - for me it was the start of the strangest year of my life. Just three weeks after I'd asked a friend to take some pictures of me as Ozzy just for fun, I was onstage at The Imperial Palace and hanging out with other fake celebrities in Las Vegas. Two weeks after that I was flown to New York by ABC, then to Chicago's NBC studios. And that was just the beginning. Fooling thousands at the Kentucky Derby, or hundreds in line at Ozzfest live on the air, it was as he might say, a crazy train. "My Year As Ozzy" is a fast-paced, hilarious drunken romp through Ozzy's reality and the fake world of celebrity look-alikes, revealing that sometimes, almost real is real enough.
