Ozzy Osbourne Pledges to ‘Do the Best I Can,’ But Says He Won’t Be ‘Jumping or Running Around’ at Final Black Sabbath Show


Ozzy Osbourne pledges to 'do the best I can,' but says he won't be 'jumping or running around' at the upcoming final, all-star Black Sabbath concert.

So all I can do is turn up.” The July 5 show at Villa Park is slated to feature a massive roster of metal acts paying tribute to Osbourne and the band’s iconic career, including Metallica, Slayer, Anthrax, Alice in Chains, Pantera, Gojira, Lamb of God, Mastodon and many more. But after Tool singer Maynard James Keenan recently said that Osbourne — who hasn’t performed a full set since Dec. 31, 2018 — will need “ modern miracles ” to get on stage given his health issues, Ozzy said he is, indeed dealing with a lot. Regardless, Osbourne has said he’s begun rigorous training to play the first show by the original Black Sabbath lineup in 20 years, where he’ll appear alongside guitarist Tony Iommi, bassist Geezer Butler and drummer Bill Ward.
