Remember the concert in the early 70s at the MPLS armory. Black Sabith and Deep Purple.
RIP.

Amazing how some people are unable to stay healthy and some can abuse themselves badly and survive.
Ozzy can’t say he didn’t outlive his odds the way he lived it.
RIP Ozzy. He was a wild man.

Ozzy Clarifies To St. Peter He Was Just Joking About The Whole Satanism Thing

PEARLY GATES — Rock legend Ozzy Osbourne sought to do away with some of the confusion about his life on Earth when arriving at the entrance to Heaven, clarifying to St. Peter that he was just joking about the whole Satanism thing.

After the end of his earthly life, Osbourne was seen by angelic witnesses explaining to St. Peter that his time spent surrounding himself with ghoulish, macabre decor and biting the heads off of bats was just for show.

"About all that satan-worship stuff, you know that was just an act, right, mate?" Osbourne was heard saying to St. Peter. "That ‘I'm the devil' biz was just a bit of flashy stage presence, yeah? Crazy way to get attention and set y'self apart from other bands, innit? I know it might seem like I'm evil and whatever, but y'gotta understand I'm down with the man upstairs, yeah, mate?"

One angelic insider reported that St. Peter remained skeptical. "I'm not sure he was buying it," the source said. "Ozzy was adamant that he's been a God-fearing Christian his whole life, and that his persona of being a blood-drinking, Satan-worshipping demon-king was just an attempt to put on a good show. At least that's what it sounded like he was saying. I can't be totally sure."

At publishing time, Osbourne had been granted probationary access to Heaven pending further review.

"It was no secret that Osbourne had been sick for some time.
He Osborne opened up about his battles with Parkinson's disease
and repeated spinal surgeries in a November 2023 interview with Rolling Stone magazine.
“I'm taking it one day at a time, and if I can perform again, I will,” the then 74-year-old singer said.

Parkinsons is a tough beat.
