Ozzy Osbourne’s sudden death comes a little more than two weeks after he took the stage for his final performance with Black Sabbath at England’s Villa Park on July 5.
Sitting on a bat-themed throne with a skull design on each arm rest, Osbourne was on stage while a montage of his highlights from over the decades played on giant screens, per fan-recorded footage shared to social media.
The concert marked his first in 20 years with Black Sabbath, the band that first put him on the map.
In 2003, Osbourne was diagnosed Parkinson’s disease, which severely impacted his ability to stand and walk. The icon didn’t publicly reveal the diagnosis, however, until 2020.
