Ozzy Osbourne extends tour dates
Singer and songwriter, and frankly the one and only Ozzy Osbourne, this week revealed details about his forthcoming No More Tours 2 gigs.
“I’ve been extremely blessed to have had two successful music careers. I’m looking at this final tour as being a huge celebration for my fans and anyone who has enjoyed my music over the past five decades.” – West Midlands’ biggest rocker Ozzy Osbourne
The No More Tours 2 title is a reference to his 1992 No More Tours trek. The announcement by the legendary musical icon about the European dates extends the North American tour, announced earlier this year, with his long time collaborators Zakk Wylde (Guitar), Blasko (Bass), Tommy Clufetos (Drums) and Adam Wakeman (Keyboards).
The 2019 European leg produced by Live Nation kicks off in Dublin on 30th January with dates scheduled throughout the UK, including a night at London’s O2 Arena before continuing through Germany, Sweden, Switzerland, and Italy before concluding in Barcelona on 3rd March; Ozzy will be joined by Judas Priest for select dates on the tour. Tickets for the U.K. shows go on sale to the general public 07 September at 9am at LiveNation.co.uk.
This summer saw Ozzy go solo on the European festival circuit, with headline performances at Download UK, Paris and Madrid, Firenze Rocks, Copenhell, Grasspop Metal Meeting and Sweden Rock Festival.
On his upcoming farewell world tour, produced by Live Nation, Ozzy will celebrate more than five decades as a performer – both as a solo artist and as lead singer of Black Sabbath which toured through Europe in 2017 on their own farewell tour. This run of dates is expected to take the gang around the world with dates into 2020. These gigs will mark the end of global touring for the legendary artist, though he will continue to perform select live shows in the future. Throughout his career, Ozzy has sold more than 100 million records.
