The Godfather of Heavy Metal Ozzy Osbourne has reached legendary heights, first as the frontman of pioneering act Black Sabbath and later for his electrifying solo material.

Born in Birmingham, UK, Ozzy was a child troubled by problems such as dyslexia and ADD but one listen of the Beatles’ ‘She Loves You’ was enough to set him on the path towards rock and roll greatness. After leaving school at just 15, Ozzy worked various jobs and even dabbled with crime before he lent his vocal talents to Geezer Butler, Tommy Iommi and others in forming Black Sabbath in 1969.

Taking inspiration from the Occult and the joy of being scared, the band developed a gloomy, blues influenced style of music which was all tied together with Ozzy’s eerie vocal style. Their sound was met with unexpected successes and their second album went on to deliver enduring rock staples like ‘Paranoid’, ‘Iron Man’ and ‘War Pigs’.

The band continued to ride high throughout the 70s however continuing internal tensions, particularly between Tommy and Ozzy, led to his departure in 1979. Ozzy wasted no time in picking up where he left off and released ‘Blizzard of Oz’ the following year and eventually turned 4 times platinum boosted by singles like ‘Crazy Train’.

Ozzy continued to have success both with his solo material and later in reforming with Black Sabbath however many people now know him for more than his music. Him and his family starred in the groundbreaking reality show ‘The Osbournes’ which showed Ozzy at his eccentric best and has made him a pop culture hero to many.

Live reviews

Ozzy Osbourne truly is, for my money at least, one of Britain’s great renaissance men; the frontman of the band who, frankly, invented heavy metal, a comedic genius without compare (“Sharon...how old am I again, Sharon?”) and somebody whose bravery in sacrificing his own body in the name of self-prescribed chemical experimentation is rivaled only by his only serious competitor for the title of world’s first immortal man, Keith Richards. After a decidedly uneven solo career that by now has spanned several decades, he found himself thrust out on his own again back in 2012, when Tony Iommi’s cancer diagnosis forced the cancellation of Black Sabbath’s summer touring plans. Thankfully, Ozzy being who he is, he had no shortage of comrades to bring in; he rounded up the most recent incarnation of his own band - featuring current Sabbath sticksman Tommy Clufetos behind the kit - and called in favours from high-profile contemporaries at select dates on what became the Ozzy and Friends tour. Slash, Zakk Wylde and Geezer Butler helped out along the way, and this now being a solo tour, it allowed the setlists to expand to include both classic Sabbath material and the finest cuts from Ozzy’s own catalogue, including ‘Mr. Crowley’, ‘Bark at the Moon’ and ‘Crazy Train’. If nothing else, it proved that he’s still capable of commanding crowds based on his own name alone; I’m quite convinced he’ll live forever, so there should be the opportunity to catch a solo gig before too long.

Report as inappropriate

“Let’s have a fucking wild time tonight!” The Prince of Darkness leaned forward and gripped the mic stand with his painted black fingers while six brilliant flames shot several feet into the air behind him. “You ain’t fucking loud enough! I can’t hear you!” It wouldn’t be surprising if Ozzy Osbourne actually is deaf at 67 years old, but the whole thing was just an unnecessary ruse to get the audience amped up for what would likely be Black Sabbath’s last show in the Mile High City. The crowd was happy to oblige though. In fact, the 18,000+ people were already on their feet and screaming before the band even appeared. A giant animated Satan stalked the screen that ran the length of the stage before Osbourne, Iommi, and Butler were joined by Tommy Clufetos to split the night open with the eponymous title track from their debut album. The introductory sounds of thunder, rain, church bells, and dread were familiar to any self-respecting connoisseur of heavy music, but that didn’t stop chills from rattling spines as Ozzy conjured the figure in black once again. Kids seeing Sabbath for the first time were chaperoned by parents who had been seeing them for half a century, but any feelings of safety and security were immediately smothered under a blanket of doom as the Godfathers of Metal presided over their own funeral. - See more at: http://ilistensoyoudonthaveto.com/2016/02/20/black-sabbath-02-15-16-pepsi-center/#sthash.slLhXXpD.dpuf

The Ozzy show at Jiffy lube Live on September 14th 2018 was utterly amazing. I will admittedly say Stone Sour did nothing for me and I am sure Ozzy could have pulled a better opener. I am pretty sure there are many metal bands from the 70s up till now that would damn near kill to perform with him.

Ozzy's set might as well been a greatest hits live performances. I had a few friends make comments that they didn't want to go thinking his advanced age would degrade their memory of him and his music. Well they were 100% wrong as soon as he opens his mouth to sing it is like the years just disappear his voice damn near matches when the song was originally recorded and is running and jumping around on stage like a 20 something year old.

Zakk Wylde has to be one of if not my favorite guitarist. The whole show including what was probably damn near a 25 minute solo he played in the crowd was amazing.

To the effects team with the lighting and designs on the stage back drop they were amazing. Both War Pigs and Crazy train definitely stood out compared to the rest of them but all of them were excellent.

The father of dark metal and reality TV car crash Ozzy Osbourne is one of the world's most globally recognised celebrities and rightly so. The frontman of Black Sabbath and matriarch of the famous Osbournes has had a varied career, spending a large majority of it directly in the spotlight yet now he is sober, clean and a stronger performer than ever.

During his struggle with drug and alcohol addiction, many described Ozzy's performance as slurred, disengaged and sluggish whereas now he attacks fan favourites such as 'I Don't Want to Change The World' and commands his band like the most gothic conductor of all time. He also has a fantastically dry wit, easily making a thousand strong crowd fall about laughing between songs. This differentiation in atmosphere keeps the audience engaged all night and the man himself clearly indicates when he expects applause, sing-alongs or the ever present mosh pits. Although no bats were harmed during tonight's show, it is fair to say Ozzy appears more outrageous than ever and with a clear head he is able to focus his talents on the live performance.

I waited 42 years to watch BLACK SABBATH perform

On February 23, 2016, I had the opportunity to see BLACK SABBATH Live and in Concert at the BELL CENTER in Montreal Quebec Canada.

I was approximately 15 rows from the stage and not once since they took the stage did I sit down.

I was drinking alcohol and drugs when I began listening to BLACK SABBATH but when I saw them I had close to 31 years of Sobriety.

My arms were pumping, waving side to side, head was banging, whistling, singing loudly, air guitaring, drumming.

Being able to watch BLACK SABBATH LIVE was a Grateful Experience.

The two things that did not happen was 1) catching a pick from Tommy Iommi 2) Meting the band in person and shaking their hand.

It would have been an Honour to have met them in person.

The LIVE CONCERT was 100% GREAT.

This show was excellent! And let me tell you the truth about it. It was Ozzy the crowd came to see. Everybody loves Ozzy Osbourne! I saw Ozzy's Diary of a Mad Man tour two or three times, it was so good. It was right at the time Randy Rhodes was killed. Ozzy put on a good show then and he a showman still to this day. He only missed lyrics in one song that I could tell and I am 57 and had sabotage on 8 track when I was 13. But, Ozzy is 67 years old and has the right to change the words to his songs if he feels of it. May the

Almighty God, the Creator of Heaven and earth, the Creator of you and me bless Ozzy Osbourne. Amen! We love you Ozzy and Black Sabbath!

Judas Priest decided to cancel almost whole European tour in 2018 (except one show in Paris, Junuary 2018) when Ozzy Osbourne informed about his health problem. I encountered many negative comments on-line from fans who wanted to see Judas Priest alone. To be honest, I also preferred to watch Priest than watch nobody. But apparently Judas Priest felt a need to wait for their friend and play concert together with Ozzy later on. We will become the most happy people on Planet Earth on the day of their show because we will witness such a beautiful sign of respect for history and tradition of heavy metal.

The show was pretty good. Of course, Ozzy's voice isn't nearly as good as it used to be, but I was thoroughly surprised that it did sound pretty decent, better than it did on Black Sabbath's 13 album. The stage setup was pretty interesting, the videos playing behind Ozzy were neat. The best part was during the solo at the end of War Pigs. Zakk Wylde walked up the isles that the audience walks down to get to their seats, and played in front of a group of people. The drummer was fantastic as well. Overall, I would recommend seeing Ozzy on this tour.

The show started with phenomenal Rival Sons. The arena was very surprised by the whole band. They played 10 songs and every single song was amazing. But then, after 15 minute break the real show started. When Black Sabbath came on the stage, the arena went crazy. Ozzy's vocals? Not that great. But that is just him! He sang like he was 30 years old. It was amazing. But the only bad thing was that the show was only 100 minutes. But c'mon, they are 70 years old!!!

The show was incredible. I witnessed a living legend singing, dancing, showing lots of love to the audience. Even the Moscow crowd (Russian people don't usually go crazy at any events) went absolutely wild. Some people call Mr. Osbourne too old, and he might be, but you won't see any old men on the stage! What you are going to see is true professionalism, huge energy, amazing performance and great, great people.

OZZY OSBOURNE To Tour Australia In March

OZZY OSBOURNE will embark on a short tour of Australia in March. Confirmed dates are as follows:

March 15 - Melbourne, AUS @ Rod Laver Arena March 18 - Sydney, AUS @ Acer Arena March 20 - Brisbane, AUS @ Brisbane Entertainment Centre

Tickets go on sale on Thursday, November 1.

As previously reported, Ozzy Osbourne 's official web site is currently hosting a poll for fans to vote on what song should be the next single from his "Black Rain" CD. There are three tracks to choose from: "Black Rain" (currently with 51% of the votes), "Civilize the Universe" (12%) and "Here for You" (37%).

"Black Rain" was reissued in August by Epic in a new jewel-case package containing the full booklet with lyrics and new color cover art and photos. It also contains CD extra bonus content featuring behind-the-scenes footage from the "Black Rain" photo shoot.

"Black Rain" , which originally came out on May 22, was released in "eco-friendly" packaging, with the CD sleeve made out of recycled paper. In addition, the record came out without a booklet to further save paper, with the lyrics, credits and other inside material available to buyers of the CD at SonyMusic.com .

"Black Rain" features several songs based on current events and the state of the world in general. But Osbourne told The Pulse of Radio that he hasn't turned into an "issues-oriented" artist. "Believe me, I've not suddenly woken up and I'm sane," he said. "But I'm not one of these guys that can write about boy-meets-girl and, I mean, it's got to mean something to me. I don't write all the lyrics, but I have to say, 'Well, you know, isn't that strange that that happened when this happened,' you know, and I'll get going, you know."

"Black Rain" debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard album chart, with first-week sales of 152,000 copies.

Ozzy Osbourne Announces Farewell World Tour

UPDATE: The Ozzman has shared footage of yesterday's press conference announcing the farewell tour. Joined by his wife and manager Sharon Osbourne, he took questions about his upcoming jaunt, potential new music, and what kinds of shows he'll play once the trek winds up ("Anything but Coachella," replies Sharon). Having worked up quite the appetite from the presser, the rocker proceeded to slice a massive, metal-as-fuck cake plastered with (presumably edible) photos of himself, because why not?

UPDATE: Ozzy Osbourne has announced North American dates for his farewell tour, with Stone Sour manning the opening slot. See the itinerary below.

Nine months after laying his beloved Black Sabbath to rest in their hometown of Birmingham, England, Ozzy Osbourne has announced his own "farewell world tour." The Ozzman's global jaunt will have him on the road from mid-2018 through 2020; the Crazy Train will depart from Mexico next May, before speeding through South America, Russia, western Europe, and eventually, North America. He'll be joined by his current backing band: guitarist Zakk Wylde, bassist Rob "Blasko" Nicholson, drummer Tommy Clufetos and keyboardist Adam Wakeman. Find a preliminary list of dates below.

While Osbourne has framed the upcoming trek as his last, he doesn't rule out the potential of future one-offs. "People keep asking me when I'm retiring," the metal icon said. "This will be my final world tour, but I can't say I won't do some shows here and there." (It's worth noting that this isn't the first time Osbourne's sworn off touring altogether; the rocker's solo trek behind 1992's No More Tears — aptly titled "No More Tours" — was originally planned as his last.)

Ozzy Osbourne Farewell Tour Rebooked for 2022

Ozzy Osbourne fans will finally get to see the Prince of Darkness in 2022. Following Ozzy’s recent health issues and COVID-19 shutting down the live music industry, Sharon Osbourne has confirmed Ozzy’s No More Tours II run will take place in 2022.

“Everybody’s booking their tours again for like 2022, and to find availabilities right now, it’s crazy,” Sharon tells Planet Rock Radio . “Agents and facilities are going nuts, trying to get everybody back. It will be exciting. I think it will be a very exciting time when bands do go back and it’ll be joyous.”

Through Ozzy’s recovery from a nasty fall which displaced metal rods in his back and his ongoing struggle with Parkinson’s, stepping back onto the stage has been a constant source of motivation for the metal icon.

“Ozzy’s tour has been rebooked. The British tour, he’ll be back in ’22. You know, we just carry on as normal. We’ve been doing loads of TV shows here and you’ve got to just keep going until Ozzy can go back live.”

An Ozzy Osbourne biopic is currently in the works, as revealed back in May. "There is absolutely things in motion right now to make [the movie] a reality," Jack Osbourne told the Jasta Show . "I think in the next few months, you'll probably see something coming up about it. But we haven't landed [at a studio] yet. So, fingers crossed."

Ozzy Osbourne Cancels Australia, New Zealand, Japan Tour Dates

By Althea Legaspi

Althea Legaspi

Ozzy Osbourne has canceled his upcoming shows in Australia, New Zealand and Japan, which were originally scheduled as part of his No More Tours 2 tour. The news follows his postponement of the UK and European leg of the ongoing tour per doctors’ orders.

“Ozzy recently developed pneumonia and has spent some time in hospital. Thankfully he is now through the worst part,” Sharon Osbourne said in a statement. “His doctors have advised that he stay at home to recuperate for a full six weeks with no travel.”

The five dates canceled in Australia, New Zealand and Japan were to take place in March. He is expected to reschedule his postponed UK and European dates, which came following a diagnosis of an upper-respiratory infection, ostensibly in the fall.

Last year, the singer was forced to postpone a handful of shows in the U.S. after contracting a staph infection . Those concerts have been rescheduled to take place in July.

In the run-up to the tour kick-off, Osbourne told Rolling Stone that though the tour’s name may suggest otherwise, he is not retiring. Instead, he plans to do short runs and one-off concerts as he sees fit. “I’m no good at anything else,” he said. “I literally can’t do anything else.”

40 Years Later: Ozzy Osbourne rocks St. Louis Blues jersey in mugshot

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Wednesday marks 40 years since Rock N’ Roll legend Ozzy Osbourne sported a St. Louis Blues jersey in a mug shot, a pure coincidence that lives on as a quirky, but beloved part of Blues hockey history.

On May 15, 1984, Osbourne was booked into the Shelby County Justice Complex in Memphis, Tennessee.

Police reports indicated that Osbourne was arrested just after midnight while he was “staggering drunk” on Memphis’ Beale Street. He was charged with one misdemeanor count of public intoxication. After five hours in custody, Osbourne was released from jail and informed that he would not need to return for a court appearance.

So how exactly did the Blues jersey in his mug shot come to be?

Osbourne packed 132 performances over parts of three years during his “Bark at the Moon” tour. This included two stops each in St. Louis and Memphis, albeit at different points of the year.

Osbourne performed at the St. Louis Arena (former home of the Blues) on Feb. 10, 1984 and at the Kiel Opera House on May 3, 1984. It’s believed he bought the Blues jersey in St. Louis during one of his visits that year, though documentation confirming when and how he got it was scarce.

John Mozeliak: Accountability ‘starts with me’ as Cardinals limp to season’s quarter point

Osbourne had one scheduled day off between two Tennessee shows (Knoxville and Memphis) on May 14, 1984. That turned into a night of drinking, ultimately leading to Osbourne’s arrest around 12:30 a.m. on the next calendar day, presumably in the Blues shirt.

Known for his eccentric personality, Osbourne’s arrest came well after he bit the head off of a bat and urinated on the Alamo Cenotaph. Many years later, he admitted to alcoholism and drug abuse during the peak of his career, though he remains hopeful for a healthier future.

His mug shot gained local popularity five years ago during the St. Louis Blues’ Stanley Cup run, during which he shared “Let’s go @StLouisBlues!” on X (previously Twitter).

Depending on where you look, you may be able to find T-shirts, sweatshirts, mugs and photo prints of Osbourne’s mug shots available for purchase online.

Osbourne, now 75 years old, is a Rock N’ Roll Hall of Famer and the former frontman of Black Sabbath. He’s produced 13 studio albums over his career, touring parts of four decades from 1980 to 2019.
