Ozzy Osbourne confirmed he will not perform a full set with Black Sabbath at their farewell concert on July 5th at Villa Park, Birmingham, owing to ongoing health concerns related to his Parkinson's disease. He plans to participate minimally, performing 'little bits and pieces' with the band while focusing on his comfort and ability. The concert features a star-studded lineup, including Metallica and Pantera, and has sold out rapidly. Despite his condition, Osbourne remains optimistic about his voice and continues to engage in music.
"I'm not planning on doing a set with Black Sabbath but I am doing little bits and pieces with them. I am doing what I can, where I feel comfortable."
"I have made it to 2025. I can't walk, but you know what I was thinking over the holidays? For all my complaining, I'm still alive."
"Parkinson's is a progressive disease. It's not something you can stabilize. It affects different parts of the body and it's affected his legs. But his voice is as good as it's ever been."
Ozzy will perform a number of solo songs with his own backing band before Sabbath join him for a finale of the metal band's classics.
