Geezer Butler has revealed that Ozzy Osbourne is hopeful for a Black Sabbath reunion during his final show. Butler shared in a recent interview that Osbourne is eager to perform at his farewell concert and suggested that the band reunite for a few songs. However, Butler emphasized that this reunion would be a one-time event, with no plans for future tours.
When Was Black Sabbath’s Last Concert?
The last official Black Sabbath concert took place in 2017. Since then, some members have performed together on occasions like the 2022 Commonwealth Games, where Osbourne and Tony Iommi played “Paranoid.” The last time Osbourne, Iommi, Butler, and Bill Ward shared the stage was in 2005.
In recent years, Osbourne’s health issues have prevented him from performing live. Despite facing challenges from back surgeries and Parkinson’s disease, Osbourne had to withdraw from the 2023 Power Trip music festival lineup due to health concerns. Although he was honored as a solo artist at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony, Osbourne opted to have a group of friends perform his songs instead.
