Ozzy Osbourne Reflects on Black Sabbath’s Final Tour and What Comes Next

The Prince of Darkness, Ozzy Osbourne, recently stopped by SiriusXM’s Los Angeles studios to sit down with Liquid Metal host Jose Mangin and discuss Black Sabbath’s final tour.

Black Sabbath will play its final three U.S. shows on November 8 in Tulsa, OK; November 10 in Houston, TX; and November 12 in San Antonio, TX. After taking a month off, the rockers will head to Europe for the final leg of their tour beginning January 19, culminating in Osbourne’s hometown of Birmingham, England.

“People are saying to me, ‘Will you be emotional?’ I don’t know — I suppose,” Osbourne said. “Going around the world five billion times and ending where you started, it’s kind of [emotional].”

Osbourne also discussed “Ozzy & Jack’s World Tour,” which he co-hosts with his son, Jack Osbourne, on the History Channel.

“TV is the most powerful thing — everybody’s got a TV,” he said. “[Jack] asked me, and without even thinking about it, I said, ‘Sure.’ It was great to be with him and all the crew he has. We had some really good times.”

Osbourne has no intention of slowing down and is currently working on a solo project.

“I’m not retiring — I’m going to carry on. I’ve been writing with Billy Morrison and Steve Stevens,” he said. “He’s not going to be in my band — he’s with Billy Idol — but he’s a friend of [Morrison’s], and I said, ‘I’ve got some ideas,’ and we worked it out.”

Osbourne also shared his thoughts on the upcoming presidential election.

“When you see a bad accident on the freeway, you think it’s grotesque, but you still have to have a little look. It’s kind of like that,” he said. “I don’t know who to trust. … If I was American, I don’t know who I would go for.”
