Regarding the Back to the Beginning show:
I have always been of the opinion that aging rock stars should take a step back and reflect on the glory days⊠and try to be satisfied with what they have accomplished. (and step aside for the modern talent) Nobody wants to see an elderly person in a wheelchair try and re-live the glory days on stage and end up being an embarrassment for themselves and their legacy.
So, as troubling as it may be to watch Ozzy belt out the classics at the Back to the Beginning show while sitting in a giant leather chair throne., he still sounds unbelievably amazing for his age and condition. astonishing really.
Thatâs really it I guess. I havenât had the chance to see all of the sets yet, however the generational range of the bands seemed as good as could be expected.
