The Battle for Ozzfest Begins

In the first episode, one member from each band will be selected to represent his or her band mates on tour in a set of challenges that could make rock and roll dreams become Ozzfest nightmares. With a motley crew of rock & roll characters all living on the same bus and fighting for the same dream, anything can happen--especially when your bosses are Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Slayer, Slipknot and Hatebreed, among others.
