Oh no, I've just recently got back Into Sabbath, a week ago I took delivery of the Laney Black Country Customs TI-Boost Tony Iommi Signature Boost Pedal.
I'm gutted, RIP Ozzy RIP the Godfather of metal.

When I was 13 and getting CD's out the library my dad said "There's a band you might like called Black Sabbath" I rented the CD and been a fan of them and Ozzy ever since.
What a great last gig to go out on.
Rest in Power.

The prologue to his autobiography was brilliant and really set the tone of the book.
"My father always said I would do something big one day.‘I’ve got a feeling about you, John Osbourne,’ he’d tell me, after he’d had a few beers.‘You’re either going to do something very special, or you’re going to go to prison.’
And he was right, my old man.
I was in prison before my eighteenth birthday.
Ozzy Osbourne, I Am Ozzy
RIP Ozzy.

RIP Not really my cup of tea but saw them in about 78/79 as a mate had a spare ticket, great night out and I smelt things I’d never smelt before as a 17/18 year old!

RIP, what a legend. A great front man, a unique singer and the perfect foil for the three others. Motley Crue are often described as the most outrageous rockers in the world but they said Ozzy was way ahead of them.
What a legacy he leaves as one of the founders of metal and, latterly, one of the key people behind what is now the highest grossing charity concert ever.
Coincidentally, I am teaching myself guitar and was churning out a reasonable rendition of Sabbath's "Snowblind" just this morning.
What a star we have lost
"Things had started becoming increasingly desperate at Loftus Road but QPR have been handed a massive lifeline and the place has absolutely erupted. it's carnage. It's bedlam. It's 1-1."
I look up to many musicians and songwriters, but Ozzy is right up there in hero status. Without Ozzy, Tony , Geezer and Bill my musical landscape would have been very different .
A day that was dreaded , but it still hurts nonetheless .
RIP Ozzy ya mad, funny, incredible trailblazer .

So glad he got to do the last concert. Went out in style.
Incredible that he got back on stage was able to thank everybody and go out in a blaze of glory basically what an end to a life well (or too well ) lived he did it all. Had to laugh at the tribute from Rod Stewart who said " sleep well I will see you up there later rather than sooner " RIP

RIP, legend. Shot in the Dark is the second song I remember hearing as a child after Zoom by Fat Larry's Band. Go join your fellow rock gods in the cemetery in the sky (aka. Hell... yeaaaaaah m/)

Just a guess, maybe he wanted to sign out in Birmingham.
Judging by the fact that he was on a throne for most of the concert, he was probably very ill when he did it. Apparently he always used to bounce around the stage and joke with Iommi during earlier gigs.
It sounds like he was much more down to earth than the "Prince of Darkness" tag.
RIP Ozzy
