Steven Tyler, Soundgarden Join Black Sabbath's Final Concert Lineup

Black Sabbath's farewell concert, 'Back to the Beginning,' set for July 5 in Birmingham, England, is expanding its already star-studded lineup to include Aerosmith's Steven Tyler and the surviving members of Soundgarden, as announced by Sharon Osbourne. This reunion marks a rare onstage appearance for both Tyler, following his vocal injury and Aerosmith's retirement from touring, and for Soundgarden, whose members have seldom performed together since Chris Cornell's death. The event will also feature performances from major acts such as Metallica, Guns N’ Roses, Tool, Slayer, Pantera, and others, with Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine serving as musical director. Ozzy Osbourne confirmed that both he and Black Sabbath will perform only a few songs each, aiming to give fans a 'sample' rather than full sets. The concert will be hosted by Jason Momoa and include guest appearances from a variety of music legends, promising additional surprises not yet announced. The show is positioned as a historic celebration of heavy metal, marking both Black Sabbath’s and Ozzy Osbourne's final performance.
