I saw the whole thing.

During Ozzy's set I remarked to my wife, "Y'know, it's so extremely like Ozzy for him to basically host his own funeral"

Overall that was the vibe. It was an OK festival show with a lot of huge acts sounding like themselves and a few sounding old and washed up (GnR), but Ozzy and Sabbath both sounded like they were supposed to and that's the important part, because from now on we'll only ever get cover versions of those songs.

I'm glad they got Bill Ward. The very last Sabbath show should have the full OG lineup. They've earned their rest.

Yeah, I remarked that this isn't back to the beginning so much as the beginning of the end for basically all on that bill. Lots of hair pieces I suspect
