GET READY BECAUSE THE BAND IS BACK TOGETHER…

HEAVY METAL LEGENDS ARE RETURNING FOR ONE LAST SHOW THIS SUMMER. 

AFTER 20 YEARS APART, OZZY OSBOURNE AND BLACK SABBATH ARE REUNITING TO PLAY THEIR GREATEST HITS—FOR A GOOD CAUSE. 

THE PIONEERS OF THE ROCK SUBGENRE ARE TAKING THE STAGE IN BIRMINGHAM, ENGLAND. 

OZZY’S WIFE, SHARON, MADE THE ANNOUNCEMENT—SAYING HE’S DETERMINED TO PUT ON ONE LAST CONCERT, DESPITE HIS BATTLE WITH PARKINSON’S AND A SPINAL INJURY, AS A FINAL GOODBYE TO HIS FANS.

THE 76-YEAR-OLD WILL PERFORM SOLO BEFORE JOINING HIS FORMER BANDMATES IN A SHOW HE’S CALLING ‘BACK TO THE BEGINNING’—TAKING CONCERTGOERS TO WHERE IT ALL STARTED.

BLACK SABBATH CHANGED THE HEAVY METAL SCENE WHEN THEY FORMED IN BIRMINGHAM IN 1968, MAKING HISTORY AS ONE OF THE GREATEST BANDS OF ALL TIME, WITH MILLIONS OF ALBUMS SOLD AROUND THE WORLD.

OZZY WENT ON TO LAUNCH A SUCCESSFUL SOLO CAREER IN 1979—AFTER BEING FIRED AS BLACK SABBATH’S LEAD SINGER.

THE SETLIST DIVES INTO THEIR EARLY HITS THAT IGNITED THEIR LEGENDARY STATUS… AND THE STAGE WILL ALSO ERUPT WITH OTHER ROCK ICONS, INCLUDING METALLICA, SLAYER AND ANTHRAX.

ALL MONEY FROM THE JULY 5TH CONCERT WILL GO TO CHARITIES FOCUSED ON PARKINSONS AND HEALTHCARE FOR CHILDREN.
