It was the heavy metal gig to, for many fans, end all heavy metal gigs as Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath bade farewell to live performing supported by a host of legendary music acts in front of 40,000 fans. The group, formed in Birmingham in 1968, rocked out Villa Park in a homecoming gig that had created a huge buzz in the city in recent weeks.

With the band's epic farewell show at Villa Park in Birmingham, England, in the books, old and new Black Sabbath fans are showing their love for the heavy metal band and their legendary lead singer Ozzy Osbourne.

Ozzy Osbourne, following a set with his solo band, was joined by fellow Black Sabbath members to play songs like “Iron Man” and “Paranoid."
