On May 5th, 1948,
Bill Ward was born in Birmingham, England. We all know the drummer made a name for himself in
Black Sabbath, but here are 14 things you might not know about the rocker:
1. Bill started playing drums as a kid, inspired by the big bands music of the ‘40s.
2. One of Bill’s first bands was called
The Rest. He played drums and sang for them.
3. Another early band Bill was in was called
Mythology. His future Sabbath bandmate
Tony Iommi was in it as well.
4. During his time in Sabbath, Bill’s bandmates loved pranking him. One time, Iommi sprayed Ward with a flammable solution studio technicians used to clean tape heads. He then lit Bill on fire. Bill wound up with third-degree burns and still has scars on his legs from the incident.
