I was never really into his music, but after seeing his farewell tour and how he passed the torch to youngblud it just reminds me type of man he was, and the world isn’t as good as it once was without him.
RIP to the Prince of Darkness

So cool he got to play out the final show, rip legend
Wonder if he knew it was coming. Glad he got that farewell concert
There were some comments he made after the show that really made it sound like he knew his time was up.
Or maybe it was just a ‘shot in the dark’.
The radio show I was listening to while driving this morning said that concert felt like a tribute except he was technically alive and present.
The emotions he had during a few of the songs, I chalked up to the finality of the performance at the time. Now I definitely feel it was something bigger he knew.
Singing about end-times in your twenties is cool and edgy. Bringing those same lyrics to his metaphorical death bed, hit totally different and it showed.
Me too. The man was a legend and a pioneer, and deserved nothing less. RIP Ozzy, it was fun having you in our lives.
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.

I mean, I wouldn’t be surprised what with the late-stage parkinson’s
symptoms usually begans around 60, so he would had for a while.
There’s a reason he came off so doddering on The Osbournes.
i looked more into the disease, apparently for some people the first symptoms are usually outside the brain, like loss of smell, or some GI issue, not all but some. one time i stumbled into a parkinsons forum, and some people said they began loss of smell

RIP to a legend
That’s a lot of weeks, just over a year.
Due to complications from a comma. It was it semi colon related?

They did!
Mission accomplished 🎉🎉
Respect @miss_demeanour@lemmy.dbzer0.com some folks are either busy, buried in comments… or maybe take offense to suggestions but IDK if they’re silent… so good edit!
So long Ozzy. Thanks for all the metal.
wow, that was an actual final show for the original sabbath.
Randy Rhoads?
He wasn’t an original Sabbath member. Ozzy, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward were the members. Rhoads was Ozzy’s guitarist when he went solo.
Ah - right. I got the timeline wrong.
Happens to the best of us. Ozzy was ready to go see him.
“Sharon!”
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!
You at the one where SOAD played just before Ozzy?
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.
I would’ve loved to see that, but no, it was Marilyn Manson. Which was still a great show
Oh damn the Manson one I missed going to. I was supposed to see Manson around 2005, but it was an outdoor concert and the whole thing got canceled due to storms, so never did get to see him; but yeah, SOAD was absolutely fantastic.
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 shared his gift with the world until the last minute, a true artist!
RIP
Ozzy finally took the Crazy Train himself.
