Two men have died after a drink and drugs spree at a leg of this year’s Ozzfest it is being reported.

The two men were attending the Holmdel, New Jersey stop off of the annual tour which also saw 83 people arrested.

Raymond Guarino (26) and Patrick Norris (24) were pronounced dead when they arrived at the Bayshore Medical Center after taking a cocktail of cocaine and marijuana with the alcohol according to Undercover.

Of the 83 people arrested the majority were for underage drinking which promoters Live Nation claim mostly takes place in the car park outside.

In a statement they said: "Although we do not have jurisdiction over the parking lot, we fully support the decision of the New Jersey Turnpike Authority and State Police to ban alcohol on the parking lot premises."

Drinking is forbidden within the venue which exacerbates the levels of drinking beforehand.

  • Alcohol is EVIL, and most music of today sucks. That pot probably kept those guys alive a lot longer than they should have been.
