    I saw Sabbath live when I was a teenager in the early aughts and they def still had it then, so I’m assuming the same up until that final show. RIP

      Yep, saw them at Ozzfest 20+ years ago, and even then they were “old”. But they crushed!

          I saw them at Pledge of Allegiance in 2001 right after Toxicity came out. Absolutely sick fucking show.

            It’s been 20 years. They need to kiss and make up. I want new SOAD.

        Those were good times. I was at the Ozzfest where Marilyn Manson humped the back of a security guards head and then got sued for it. Good times indeed.

          Which year? Manson was I think third billed at the one I went to. (2001)

            2001 sounds right. I was definitely at that one. I remember the t shirt being Satan grabbing his hairy balls and flipping you the bird. They made me turn that t shirt inside out in high school when I wore it. Buncha facists.

            I also remember Sony had a PS2 truck there and you could play Twisted Metal Black. It was awesome.

        He and Sharon have been longtime proponents of euthanasia. It’s entirely possible this was the plan all along.

        Honestly, no judgment either way. Ozzy is a legend, and he died as he lived - on his own terms. RIP.
