Ozzy announces farewell tour in 2018

Posted by on November 6, 2017

 

The Prince of Darkness will embark on his final world tour starting in May 2018. The tour will span for for two years and will be celebrating Ozzy’s entire five decade career. The tour will kick off in Mexico, Chili and Argentina and then head over to Russia. Afterwards, Ozzy will stop by Europe and make his way back to North America. Joining him on the road will be Zakk Wylde (guitar), Rob “Blasko” Nicholson (bass), Tommy Clufetos (drums), and Adam Wakeman (keyboards). Even though Ozzy won’t be touring anymore, he is still open to playing select shows,

“People keep asking me when I’m retiring,” Ozzy says. “This will be my final world tour, but I can’t say I won’t do some shows here and there.”

Ozzy did announce a farewell tour back in 1992, properly titled No More Tours, but this time it seems a bit more realistic. Expect to hear more details in 2018.
