Bait and Switch?

More acts have signed on to the massive farewell Black Sabbath show this summer including Guns n' Roses and Tool. Tickets went on sale last week and sold out in like 16 minutes, so the addition of more bands wasn't to grease the skids in attendance.


Now, the big question: was this all a bait and switch? The concert was first advertised as the last show ever with the original members of Black Sabbath including Ozzy Osbourne. Now we all know Ozzy is in a bad way health-wise. Parkinson's disease is a monster and it is really taking its toll on Osbourne now according to media reports. Still, the concert was advertised as a full Ozzy performance with Sabbath. Now Ozzy is quoted as saying he will do "bits and pieces" of the show with Sabbath as he can. Ozzy says he can't walk right now, but he's coping. I'm sure the "Back to the Beginning" concert will still be legendary - maybe not just quite as originally billed.
