“I’m so fucking bummed about cancelling these shows,” the singer said in a statement. “The tour had been going great and we were really looking forward to these last few gigs. We’re hoping everyone will be patient and we’ll look forward to seeing them at the shows next year.”
As Ozzy notes, the shows—they include Mountain View, CA; Chula Vista, CA; Los Angeles; and Las Vegas—will be rescheduled for 2019, with existing tickets for the four dates being honored at the rescheduled concerts.
Ozzy claims this will be his final world tour, thus the No More Tours 2 tag, though his initial No More Tours run in the early ‘90s clearly didn’t stick. He’ll hit the road again when the tour begins its European leg with a Dublin gig in January. He’s previously said the tour will take him through 2020, while his life will, as the gods have writ, carry on long after we’ve all perished.
