Could BLACK SABBATH Reunite For Opening Of Commonwealth Games In Birmingham?; "That Would Be Fantastic," Says OZZY OSBOURNE (Video)

In a new interview with ITV News, Ozzy Osbourne is asked if he'd like to perform at the opening ceremony of the next Commonwealth Games - to be held in Birmingham, England - the city where his legendary band Black Sabbath formed in 1968.

“That would be fantastic, wouldn't it? Yeah, with Black Sabbath or with me," says Ozzy. Black Sabbath disbanded in 2017, playing their final show in Birmingham.

Note: Although ITV News suggests the games will take place in 2020, the year Ozzy's final world tour is set to wrap up, they are actually scheduled to take place from August 27th - July 7th, 2022.

During the interview, Ozzy also talks about his workout regimen, his sobriety, and his surprise at surviving to be 70 years old. Read more at ITV News, and watch the video below:

"I've been extremely blessed to have had two successful music careers," Osbourne says about his final tour. "I'm looking at this final tour as being a huge celebration for my fans and anyone who has enjoyed my music over the past five decades."
