Black Sabbath drummer Bill Ward recently underwent surgery to address diverticulitis in Southern California.  The drummer, who opted out of the Black Sabbath reunion in a dispute over the terms, is recuperating and anticipates being up and about with no lasting ill effects.  Ward's place behind the drums was filled by Brad Wilk from Rage Against The Machine during recording sessions for the album 13 and Ozzy Osbourne's solo band drummer has been filling the role during Sabbath tour dates.  Ward has occupied himself with a drum related art project now on exhibit at the Annapolis Collection Gallery in Maryland.  More info on that is available at BillWardDrumArt.com.
