    .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ........................ ...... .. .. ....The Brain's House ~ Christmas Day 2008:.... .. .. ..l-r: JR, Zak (Brain's son), Zakk Wylde, Brain's Mom & The Brain.. .. .. .. ..Black Reign: The Premier Classic Ozzy/ Black Sabbath Tribute .. .. ..So where does the story begin....? Well...it weaves in and out starting in October of 2007, but strangely; it dates back almost 10 years....and sometimes even longer. .. .. This pet project is the "brain" child of a one Brian "Brain" Brown.... Whose spot-on vocal replication of Ozzy, both from early Sabbath days straight on into present day, is both eerie and uncanny. It is effortless and natural. .. Brain began to put this project together in October of 2007. To do a proper tribute to the music performed by his idol Ozzy Osbourne, has been an ongoing effort on Brain's part for a number of years and the paths that would cross along the journey are quite interesting to say the least....quite possibly dictated by fate. Though fate wasn't always so co-operative, it would not deter Brain's determination to see his dream come to fruition. .. .. The demand for the songs to be played in their purest way led Brain to continue to look for the right members. It would take well over a year of line-up changes and rotating musicians until Brain finally found the right musicians. It would become a virtual wild goose chase until the line-up was cemented. It would take Brain on a strange ride that would include a few strangers who were not to be...and a few people he ended up knowing most of his life. .. .. A chance meeting with Brain's brother would lead to a conversation about the necessity of a drummer for this project. This would lead to a phone call by drummer Paul Linn to The Brain. To know the real history of this band, we will need to back up 25 years. Brain and Paul are old friends, going all the way back to Jackson Memorial High School. The very same JMHS, where their friend and fellow classmate, Zakk Wylde, once roamed the halls. There, a discovered love for the same music and a concert shirt inquiry would spark a conversation and cement a friendship. .. .. Now finding himself that much closer to completing the lineup, Brain found he was now in need of the perfect bassist. After a very short discussion between Brain and Paul, a call was placed by Paul to another old friend. This would bring Jon Anderson into the fold. Brain, Paul and Jon found themselves in a familiar situation. Paul and Jon had a history of playing together on and off for over 10 years. Even more familiar, was that all 3 had once tried to get a Black Sabbath project off the ground once before. But the timing wasn’t right just then. Not yet. .. .. They are currently working with a new guitar player who will be named at a later time. .. .. Brainfest is a local festival thrown by the band which features local original and cover bands and a full stage production by the band with all the bells and whistles. Over the last 2 years, this festival has grown and brings in well over 3 or 400 people. Each year it grows and this year will prove that to be true once again. .. .. Now with the line-up cemented and a rather large arsenal of songs, they are constantly tightening the songs and working out new ones to add to the roster. The band is also out gigging as much as possible, with no end in sight and no plans to stop. Talk is always overheard at all of their shows about how easily this band puts other Ozzy and Black Sabbath tributes to shame. They have played all over Central and North NJ, PA and NYC. Each time, spreading the word of just how good this band really is. Without all the silly distractions from the most important aspect of why Brain put this together in the first place and what other tribute bands seem to neglect.....The Music......imagine that? A Tribute Band who actually honors the music. .... .. ..............
