Black Sabbath‘s “The End Tour” from 2016-17 didn’t end things for their original frontman. In fact, Ozzy Osbourne says he’d love to perform with co-founding drummer Bill Ward again. Their final concerts – and last album with Osbourne, 2013’s 13 – didn’t include Ward after contract negotiations broke down.

More often than not, music fans never know when their favorite band is going to play their final note.
