Black Sabbath concert chronology |
The End Tour is an ongoing series of concerts by heavy metal band Black Sabbath, featuring founding members Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler, billed as the band's farewell tour.[1]
Overview
Background
Initial dates were announced in a video posted on the band's YouTube channel on September 3, 2015 with more dates announced in October 2015.[2][3] As with the previous tour, Tommy Clufetos will fill in for original drummer Bill Ward, due to Ward's departure and animosity towards singer Ozzy Osbourne.[4] An eight-track EP, entitled The End, was released to coincide with this tour and was only available at shows. The band Rival Sons is the sole support act for all of Black Sabbath's headlining shows.[5][6]
Personnel
- Ozzy Osbourne – lead vocals
