BLACK SABBATH
TOUR UPDATE:
BAND'S SOLE EUROPEAN PERFORMANCE THIS SUMMER SET FOR U.K.'S DOWNLOAD FESTIVAL
OZZY & FRIENDS TO PERFORM MAJORITY OF OTHER SCHEDULED SHOWS
BLACK SABBATH --who late last year confirmed the recording of their first new album in more than 33 years and a worldwide headlining tour--have had to put some plans on hold due to Tony Iommi's battle with lymphoma. At this time, BLACK SABBATH will perform only one show of this summer's previously scheduled European tour. It will take place Sunday, June 10 at the U.K.'s Download Festival.
So as not to let the promoters and fans down, OZZY OSBOURNE will now perform the majority of the previously scheduled BLACK SABBATH dates (both festival performances and the headlining shows) billed as OZZY & FRIENDS. These "first ever" OZZY & FRIENDS shows will feature appearances by "special guest" musicians including GEEZER BUTLER (who will join Ozzy for a special BLACK SABBATH set as a show of respect and support to their friend, Tony Iommi) and longtime former OZZY band member Zakk Wylde. In addition, OZZY will be accompanied by longtime collaborator and friend Slash at select shows, with other "special guests" set to join the tour at various stops along the way (full list of dates, appearances below).
Tony Iommi continues to make excellent progress and is looking forward to getting back out on the road. Meanwhile, BLACK SABBATH continue to write and record music in the U.K. for their upcoming album. More information about these dates and BLACK SABBATH's recording and touring plans is forthcoming.

Tony Iommi must only be able to do the one show or is not up to travelling/touring.
I just ordered my ticket...and now I've canceled it.
Thank you for posting this.
I don't wanna pay to see "Ozzy and Friends" (This has Sharon Osbourne written all over it). I wanna see fucking Black Sabbath.
FUCK.
EDIT: If this was about the MUSIC!!! they would reschedule and wait for Tony to get well. Ozzy and Friends!??? seriously. What a fucking cash-grab. I'm blaming Ozz and Sharon for this.
Tony, Geezer and Ward = class act legends.
This is fucking crazy.

That statement was only released a few hours ago and I only posted because I spotted you had bumped the thread. Good job you did!
Sorry you don't get to see Sabbath (albeit probably without Bill Ward) but good you were able to cancel the order.

YES!
not too shabby. they could have cut the first 5-6 down a couple of minutes and it would have been better imo.
It took a few listens, but I love the new song. Especially the second half. Classic Sabbath!
is streaming on itunes.
on second listen. digging it quite a bit.
they could've at least introduced the old albums to itunes upon this release.
Shit- pleasantly surprised how this turned out!!!
3 people on this forum like black sabbath. lolz ::)
cant wait for see them in October, damn! 13 is amazing!
I was just in love with master of reality and vol.4 again last night.
Digging the new album. Should listen to more Black Sabbath.
