He hasn’t performed a full present since 2018, however goes to be hitting the stage with the reunited full authentic lineup of Black Sabbath for his or her “Again to the Starting” charity live performance later this 12 months. Whereas we knew we wouldn’t get Ozzy at his full capability, it appears we’ll get much less of him on stage as we orignally thought.
