'Free' Ozzfest Tickets Controversy.... Eager fans hoping to attend this year's free Ozzfest concert may be forced to pay for tickets.Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne recently announced the gig - which kicks off in Washington on 12 July (07) - will be free for fans. But concert-goers may have to purchase special 'packages' to ensure guaranteed entry following a delay in ticket distribution.Fans unwilling to wait until 12 June to hear if their application for tickets has been successful are opting to spend between $300 (£150) and $1,000 on Vip tickets.Earlier this month the former Black Sabbath frontman told Mtv, "The ticket prices don't ever go down. We're in hard times now. I'm just trying to bring a bit of fairness to the game, and Sharon is also, and keep people happy."
