Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne Reunite for Final "Back to the Beginning" Gig

Black Sabbath performed with Ozzy Osbourne for the first time since 2005, featuring original members Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward (though Tommy Clufetos played drums during the final tour).

The concert, titled "Back to the Beginning," included performances from Metallica, Guns N' Roses, Slayer, and other prominent bands.

Tom Morello served as the event's music director, promising the "greatest heavy metal show ever."

The livestreamed event benefited Cure Parkinson’s, Birmingham Children’s Hospital, and Acorn Children’s Hospice.

Ozzy Osbourne's wife, Sharon Osbourne, proposed the final gig as a proper goodbye to fans after Ozzy faced medical challenges, including Parkinson's diagnosis and physical weakness. Why this matters: This concert marks the end of an era for one of the most influential bands in heavy metal history. It provides closure for fans and raises funds for important charitable causes.
