San Antonio’s ExpressNews.com is reporting that legendary Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne will visit Alamo Plaza today (Thursday, November 5^th) to apologize for relieving himself on the cenotaph monument 33 years ago. The news came down courtesy of District 1 Councilman Roberto Treviño, who informed an audience at a downtown forum Wednesday night.

On February 19th, 1982, a drunken and wedding dress-clad Osbourne urinated on the cenotaph — a 1939 statue with a frieze depicting Alamo defenders such as William B. Travis and David Crockett. Osbourne ended up with jail time and a 10-year ban for his efforts.

The rock legend’s mea culpa won’t come via a scheduled press conference, Trevino said. Instead, Osbourne is taping a show for the History Channel along with his son Jack — “like a father and son spoof on history,” he said in a recent Billboard interview.

“We did get a call,” Treviño said. “Certainly, as a city, we feel very, very good about his efforts to come to our great city and apologize for the actions of a not-so-sober person.”

Trevino declined to give a time for Osbourne’s arrival explaining that his office wants to avoid a spectacle.

In a new interview with Billboard, Ozzy Osbourne talks about Halloween night at the Voodoo Music + Arts Experience in New Orleans and “the end” of Black Sabbath.

Here are a few excerpts from the chat:

You have plenty of treats for the crowd at Voodoo, with Slash, Tom Morello and Black Sabbath bassist Geezer Butler joining you.

Osbourne: “I haven't played with Tom Morello, but I've met him a couple times and he seems like a nice enough guy and I've heard nothing but good things about him, so I'm looking forward to seeing it. And Geezer and Slash...We all know Slash; I mean, Slash is an entity on his own. He's a great friend of mine as well. And Geezer I've known since were were fucking 12. It's not all these musicians on stage at the same time and they're all jockeying for position. At various intervals of the show certain people will come on with me and then they'll go off and someone else will come on. It should work well and hopefully the kids are all up for it.”

Are you ready for The End of Sabbath?

Osbourne: “Absolutely. I mean, it is the end of Sabbath, believe me. In December I'll be fucking 68 and it's time to call it the end of the day with Sabbath. It's been 45 years and it's been great. We started as kids and the greatest gift I have is the memory of the fact that we weren't a band in some London business mogul's head. We were four kids from a place called Aston, Birmingham, and it was a very fucked up, low-rent place and we said 'We'll just form a band' and we started with nothing and our first album went straight to f---ing No. 2 on the British charts and we've never looked back since. I don't want it to dwindle and dwindle and just play for the sake of making another fucking sack full of cash. I'm really proud of Sabbath, but it's time.”

Are you still planning to do a Sabbath farewell album?

Osbourne: “No, no. We were gonna do one before the tour, but it would take three or four years to write and record an album, by which time I'll be fucking 73 or 72 or something, so we decided just to do a farewell tour. Plus, after the last one (2013's 13), if we did an album and it went to No. 2, people would go, ‘It's over,' right?’”
