Mastodon thrown off Ozzfest

SMNnews.com has received reports from sources close to the Ozzfest 2005 camp that 2nd Stage artists Mastodon have been kicked off the Ozzfest 2005 bill, and are no longer a part of the tour. The statement reportedly indicates that the band were (or have been) 'destroying' things backstage while drunk and disorderly, and have been considered problematic.

But going by Sharon's comments this is all fun and games right? No one was hurt. If this turns out to be true, what's the problem? Maybe they weren't willing to kiss Osbourne Corp ass?
