Former Megadeth guitarist Marty Friedman revealed in a recent interview that he "failed miserably" when auditioning for Ozzy Osbourne's solo band in the late '80s. Despite his impressive guitar skills, Friedman felt that his image and vibe didn't align with the band members, who were decked out in 1980s Sunset Strip attire while he was dressed casually. Friedman also mentioned that their different lifestyles, particularly their drinking habits, may have played a role in the disconnect. Ultimately, Friedman understands why he didn't get the gig and has since moved on to a successful career in Japan.
