How do you feel about the Black Sabbath bench in Birmingham?
00:05
Well, I mean, it's an achievement, again, I mean, Black Sabbath,
00:08
but we all come from Birmingham, Aston precisely.
00:14
But, Andy, it's... I don't know if I can thank you enough, you know.
00:20
Did you ever think at any time that in your hometown
00:24
there would be a bench with huge, huge pictures of Black Sabbath on it?
00:30
Never, never. I mean, it's fantastic.
00:33
And it's become a tourist attraction because people go and sit
00:37
and have their picture taken to whichever member of Black Sabbath they want.
00:41
That's really cool. It's really cool.
00:44
So your early experiences in Birmingham?
00:47
Well, my early experiences...
00:49
I didn't go to Birmingham city centre much as a kid,
00:53
but it was like a special occasion.
00:56
I remember being in Aston more than...
01:01
Birmingham centre, yeah.
01:03
I remember when there was football matches on at the villa,
01:07
we used to mine cars and get like a tip at the end of it.
01:11
I remember my father going out the pub singing on the bus.
01:17
The thing about Aston, a lot of things have changed about it,
01:22
but my house in Ludd's Road is still there.
01:26
I used to go up there all the time when I had a chance to go and...
01:31
I showed you that, didn't I?
01:33
Yeah, we've been to the house, the kids have been to the house.
01:36
The only thing I still remember was the beer.
01:38
The what?
01:39
The beer.
01:40
Oh, the beer. You aren't having any beer, are you?
01:42
I know.
01:43
No beer at all. So water for you.
01:46
Oh, yeah.
01:47
Lots of cold water.
01:49
No beer from Birmingham.
01:52
So when do you think you're going to be there?
01:54
When you go. I told you, if I have to crawl on the plough and you go,
01:58
I'm coming with you.
