Seventeen days after his farewell concert with his band Black Sabbath, Ozzy Osbourne dies at 76. After launching his successful solo career in the '80s, he became the centerpiece of the metal community with the Ozzfest tour, which ran 1996–2008 and a few years thereafter. Ozzy tried retirement a few times (first in 1992) but always got bored and returned to action.

Black Sabbath reunite with their four original members for one last show at the Back To The Beginning concert in their hometown of Birmingham, England. It's also the last show for lead singer Ozzy Osbourne, who does a solo set from a chair, as he's suffering from Parkinson's disease. The celebration lasts 11 hours and includes performances from Metallica, Slayer, Anthrax, Guns N' Roses, Halestorm, Pantera and Alice In Chains.
