So remember when that kids’ group Louisville Leopard Percussionists covered Ozzy Osbourne’s “Crazy Train”?
Here’s the video if you were too lazy to click on the link above:
Well, anyhoo, Ozzy heard it and LOVED IT!
From Louisville’s THE COURIER JOURNAL:
After seeing a YouTube video of the Leopards crush their version of Osbourne’s signature hit, “Crazy Train,” the former leader of Black Sabbath and heavy metal icon donated $10,000 to the group. The Louisville Leopard Percussionists began in 1993 and rely primarily on donations as a community non-profit organization. The group is comprised of more than 60 students ages 7-14, and founder Diane Downs uses a modular approach, teaching each student a specific part of a song.
Well done, kids!
FYI – if you want to make a donation (doesn’t have to be $10K), donate HERE.
