In February, Ozzy Osbourne cancelled his 2023 tour of the UK and Europe and announced his retirement from touring due to his various chronic health issues.

However, the Prince of Darkness didn’t leave the door completely closed.

In recent weeks, Osbourne has confirmed that, although the days of extensive touring are behind him, one-off shows will prevail.

He explained, “I mean, doing a live show is what I live for. I’ve gotta do more gigs [even] if I have to get someone to wheel me out there. I mean, you can’t retire from this game. It’s not a job, it’s a fking passion. I don’t know how to do anything else. The thought of sitting in my house all day… I’m a road dog, you know? I’ve been doing it fking 55 years. It’s the best thing to have ever happened to me.”
