It's been a week now...can we all admit...(Ozzy/Sabbath)

[GoodJudge]

I agree with a lot of the OP. I think every song player that day should've been either an Ozzy or Sabbath song. People can see bands playing their own music at their own shows.

The one that I hated the most was the Ghost guy singing BATM. He has no range. He's an awful singer on his own songs. And to see him butcher one of the most anticipated songs of the entire day was just sad and disappointing.

Good point, and also what was that idiot even doing there?

He's the creator of one of the very few successful hard rock / metal bands formed in the last 2 decades.

As for OP:

It is laughable to think that we've seen the last of Ozzy, and that he will be retiring.
As long as Sharon has his leash, he will still show up either on the concert stage in a wheel chair, or some moronic Youtube show that will feature him reviewing funny pet videos.

Sharon seems to have forgotten that most of the world has moved on from Ozzy.

Yes, it looked like that on July 5th.

More likely the latter. Say what you will about Sharon but she usually gets it right what is on brand and what's not.

Ersatz rock stars like Paul Di'Anno and Steve Grimmett can go on stage in a wheelchair for a whole tour. Ozzy freaking Osbourne can't unless it's an special event like this or like Grohl after an accident.

Dumb-ass youtube or tiktok videos? Sure. Look it's the old guy from the Osbournes!

I am just waiting on Jinglesthechristmasmouse review...

but IMO, Ozzy loves his fans, sharon loves the money, they both win. They took grandpa one a route 66 trip one more time because he wanted it...he went out on top regardless if it wasn't perfect. I watched it, imperfections and all and didn't care. Did you also notice Nuno slide into the wrong fret position as the solo on BATM was coming toward the end? I did and don't care, that guy was blazing.

It would’ve been depressing even if he was healthy because it was the last Black Sabbath/Ozzy show ever.

He did too many solo songs, Tommi didn’t want him to do a solo set at all because he knew the Black Sabbath set would suffer and it did.

I was not impressed with the bands, Halestorm was the best band there, best singer, best front person, best performer and best ass.

Ozzy got his final show with flaws and all … good for him and good for God.

[Anthrax442]

Ozzy was auto-tuned for the pay per view live stream.

Understood, but that's still singing, it's not miming to backing tracks.

[DangerZone]

It’s crazy - Ozzy is 5 years older than Johnny cash when he died.
His performance of “mama I’m coming home” has Cash’s “hurt” vibes

[Tyketto Meniketti]

It certainly made no sense that Steven Tyler sang a Zep song. Although, he did it well.

All performances should've centered around BS/Ozzy with - maybe - one of their own tunes.

That said, I think the highlight (beyond Nuno's remarkable heavy lifting) was Bill Ward shirtless. At 77, you can do what you want!

That was a real lowlight. No one wants to see a man that age that looks like a cancer lump.

I’d like to hear the autotuned version, I can’t find it on YouTube. I thought he sounded decent on the non autotuned clips except for the “Mama” song.
