I'm not going but it will probably be the last time.
Black Sabbath books Portland-area show, cancels final album
It looks like "13" will be Black Sabbath's lucky number after all. Frontman Ozzy Osbourne told the Times-Picayune that the legendary group have abandoned plans to record a sequel to the 2013 album, leaving their current "The End" tour to mark Black Sabbath's last stand.
"It's the end of Sabbath, believe me," he reportedly said. "In December, I'll be (expletive) 68 and I think it's time to call it the end of the day. I'm not saying I won't get on stage with Geezer (Butler) or Tony (Iommi) or any of them some time, but officially we're going to be done."
Original member Bill Ward has been outspoken about his lack of involvement with the "13" reunion and performances, and it appears he will not be participating in Black Sabbath's last run. The band has not announced a touring drummer.
The good news is that Black Sabbath's last run will bring them to the Portland area next year, with a just-announced date at the Sunlight Supply Amphitheater, the Ridgefield venue formerly known as Amphitheater Northwest and the Sleep Country Amphitheater. Sabbath will headline on Sept. 13, 2016, joining a summer arena schedule already filling with dates from 5 Seconds of Summer and Demi Lovato & Nick Jonas.
Sabbath tickets for Ridgefield, appropriately, go on sale on Halloween: 10 a.m. on Oct. 31 viaLiveNation.com.

I am so confused right now.
You ask if anyone is going to a concert at the Moda when it's not being held there.
Then you say you're not going after the concert is over.
WTF?!?

Saw them in the Gorge in I think '01?(Sorry it was a long time ago and I was REALLY high.) Ozzy was pretty punchy even back then.
For me, Sabbath doesn't really exist without Bill Ward. He is simply one of the most unique and talented drummers who ever lived. John Bonham shit his pants when he first heard War Pigs. Bonham was about power and groove. Ward was about orchestration and jazz-inspired fills that are vital to Heavy Metal.
He never gets the credit he deserves. Ozzy totalled fucked over one of his best friends. But hey, this is Ozzy we are talking about. His solo career is near done and this is all he has. No matter what lineup they will always be the band that changed my life. They created a whole new style of music that is still vital today.
