Legendary frontman Ozzy Osbourne will take the stage from a throne during Black Sabbath’s final-ever performance, set for July 5 in Birmingham, England.
At 76, Osbourne has faced numerous health challenges in recent years, including neck injuries and Parkinson’s disease. His decision to perform seated doesn’t come as a shock, as he previously admitted he can no longer walk..
In a recent interview with Metal XS, longtime guitarist Zakk Wylde hinted that Ozzy’s throne may even take flight:
“The game plan is, let’s hope this is what happens… Oz was singing at the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame thing. Ozzy was just sitting in the chair and he was singing ‘Mama, I’m Coming Home’, and it sounded great. So hopefully, we’ll just do this, and then Oz will go, ‘Let’s just fire up the machine again and we’ll do another tour.’
With Oz and his throne that just flies over the stadium or whatever, [where he] shoots out buckets of water and does everything like that. So if Oz has a great time and it’s just like, ‘I wanna go out on the road again,’ it’s just like, ‘Good. Let’s do it again.'”
Whether this truly marks the end or just another chapter in Osbourne’s storied career remains to be seen.

My husband was diagnosed of Parkinsons disease 2 years ago, when he was 49. He had a stooped posture, tremors, right arm does not move and also a pulsating feeling in his body. He was placed on Senemet for 8 months and then Sifrol was introduced and replaced the Senemet, during this time span he was also diagnosed with dementia. He started having hallucinations, lost touch with reality. Suspecting it was the medication I took him off the Siferol (with the doctor’s knowledge) and started him on PD-5 natural herbal formula we ordered from AKANNI HERBAL CENTRE, his symptoms totally declined over a 3 weeks use of the AKANNI HERBAL Parkinsons disease natural herbal formula. He is now almost 51 and doing very well, the disease is totally reversed! (Visit w w w.aknniherbscentre .com)
I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease four years ago. For over two years, I relied on Levodopa and several other medications, but unfortunately, the symptoms kept getting worse. The tremors became more noticeable, and my balance and mobility started to decline quickly. Last year, out of desperation and hope, I decided to try a herbal treatment program from NaturePath Herbal Clinic.
Honestly, I was skeptical at first, but within a few months of starting the treatment, I began to notice real changes. My movements became smoother, the tremors subsided, and I felt steadier on my feet. Incredibly, I also regained much of my energy and confidence. It’s been a life-changing experience I feel more like myself again, better than I’ve felt in years.If you or a loved one is struggling with Parkinson’s disease, I truly recommend looking into their natural approach.
