Houston will be the first stop.

I have always been a huge Sabbath fan but was way to young, and was disappointed when they cancelled the tour last year...but it is officially back on and tour dates set.

I saw Ozzy 2nd concert for my 13th Bday 1 month before Randy Rhoads passed away (RIP) in a plane crash. Unfortunately it was the year Ozzy pee'ed on the Alamo he was arrested (Diary of a Madman Tour) and the show started late and was rushed....Randy was still awesome.

    I love Sabbath, and I saw that same tour (Diary of a Madman Tour) it was awesome. I also saw Sabbath with Ronnie James Dio, another awesome show, but today, I wouldn't waste my money..

    Ozzy's gotta stay sober first... Heard he's hung up on OTC painkillers again.

    As far as old rockers go... I went and saw KISS for the hell of it, with Ted Nugent for an opener. Great time.:lol:

    This might be your last chance to see them. Tony Iommi has lymphoma.

    I doubt it, Ozzy can barely speak, and when he sings, he has to read his "own" lyrics off a teleprompter. There is a time when one just needs to hang it up, and this is one of those times, IMO of course..

    I would rather sit and listen to Sabbath on my SDA's..

    I've been to 3 Sabbath shows & a couple Ozzy solo shows. Saw Heaven & Hell a few years back with Dio also. But, this tour's not going to have Bill on drums, is it? He's not drumming on the upcoming release. I'm going to have to see what ticket prices look like before deciding.

    Last time I saw Ozzy,,, Metallica opened up for him. Jake passed out towards the end of the show. Shoot, was that 86? Think for Metallica it was master of puppets, for ozzy, Ultimate sin tour.

    I was at that tour, METALLICA made OZZY look like a RAG DOLL.. Going from the high energy of Metallica to Ozzy was a downer. Me and my friends went walking around checking out the chicks..

    I saw Black Sabbath in 1978 when I was 15 and had 8th row seats. I think I will let that memory do.

    I have to agree on this. Ozzy lost his talent and integrity, years ago. My opinion, nothing more.
    If you can't hear a difference, don't waste your money.

    I saw BS with Ian Gillan on the Born Again tour. That concert was so loud, you could barely make out which tune was which.
    Alas, it was one of many concerts that led to my tinitus:sad:
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

    There is no God. :wink:

    Re-checking their tour dates, no luck for me. Across the south, up the east coast, stops in Ill/In, then ... Vegas.

    ..... October 06 they'll be in Buenos Aires, Argentina. City of La Plata Stadium.

    Argentinians know how to enjoy a good concert and have a great time. A really great time. A REALLY great time.
    (Check out "AC/DC Live at River Plate").

    Hope Sabbath's hitting on all eight, and hope there's plenty of filmage to document what will probably be their last concert together.
