Ozi Osbourne’s black sabbath performance was ‘Mindballing’, son says

The son of Black Sabbath Frontman Ozi Osbourne, Lewis Osborne described the last appearance of the band as “Mindbling”.

Posting on his Facebook page on Sunday, a resident of Birmingham spoke of his father’s “emotional” performance-76-year-old Parkinson’s disease mentioned.

He wrote: “The audience showed him all the love you expect and will come back to them. A emotional end for a 57 -year career.”

Ozi was included in Birmingham for the first time in 20 years by full original Sabbath Line-up, which the band said was his last show.

The event included Metal and Rock Legends Metalica, Guns N ‘Roses, Slair, The Rolling Stones’ Ronnie Wood and Steven Tyler of Aarosmith.

Luis wrote: “I really don’t know where to start the show tomorrow. It was very emotional for us.

“I used to splash many times. It was everything we wanted it and more.

“I just wanted it to be sent a reputable for him. But as soon as he started singing, we knew that he was going to give it a nail.”

Ozid, sitting on a black throne in front of 40,000 fans, sang.

His son said: “I know he was disappointed because you can see that he wanted to get up and tear the stage as old. But he did very well.

“Perfect. I then sat in my dressing room and saw Axal meeting for the first time and Axal told him how much he inspired him. Then James Hetfield thanked him for everything and how he shaped his entire career.”

Luis said that Ozi looked “unaffected” from the conversation and when Rock was asking the legend whether he had a good time, he responded with “yes”.

Luis said that he stopped in the house and finished the night, where his father grew up in the city, completing the post: “You can’t write it! My pride and love are far from the scale. What a day!

Meanwhile, Black Sabbath Road Graham Wright told the BBC Radio WM how there was the atmosphere behind the stage from behind the stage.

He said: “All those four were 150% above for this. It was incredible – it was a cow’s time. I was lost for words.

“Ozi was great. After the show in the dressing room, there were throat and tears. It was amazing.”

In the weekend, somewhere else in the city, some pubs were showing a stream of concerts and the customers had to be removed after getting out of the beer – while others hit the full capacity as soon as possible.

David Longemet, the owner of the famous Rock Bar, called the experience “mental”.

He said: “It was the busiest weekend ever in our 18 -year history.

“We did one out, a policy almost all day and night. We hit the capacity to the public of fans participating in Sabbath Pre-show on Friday night.

“We were packed from 4 pm on Friday to 4 am on Saturday.”

He said that the BBC the bar ran out of the draft beer till 03:30 BST on Saturday, but he was able to restore by Sunday, saying: “We were busy to ensure that everyone was safe and serving – it was absolutely mental.”

Meanwhile, Flapper, a famous rock pub and music site, had to remove customers during the live stream of the concert.

Manager Sam Campbell told the BBC: “The Sabbath show was a great boost for Flapper – this Bram was great in highlighting independents and music places.

“We had to close our doors in the evening due to being in the ability to live streams – and ran out of some beer brands in the evening.

“Vibes were impeccable and the party continued in the initial hours after the end of Livestream.

“It was good to have Birmingham on the map for the weekend.”
