Did you ever see Ozzy Osbourne play live?
Rock’s self-proclaimed Prince of Darkness Ozzy Osbourne may be no more, but there is a little piece of the Waikato that will forever be a part of his legacy.
That little piece, specifically, is a field near Ngāruawāhia, not far from the banks of the Waikato River, where Osbourne - who died on Wednesday at the age of 76 - and his band Black Sabbath headlined a three-day event called the Great Ngāruawāhia Music Festival.
From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort
Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.
He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
