Since then, the idea of a reunion concert has been floated among fans of the heavy metal band. And it seems that fans aren’t the only ones who want a final concert.
“Of course there’s an interest [on my part to do it], but there’s a big ‘but’ — you’d have to speak to Bill [Ward] about it,” Geezer said to the SiriusXM radio host. Bill was not a part of the final Black Sabbath shows in 2016 and 2017.
Geezer continued: “Everybody wants to do it [but I don’t know if he is] capable [of pulling it off].” The bassist added that he’s in daily communication with Ozzy, who’s also keen for a final show.
“Ozzy was hoping to finish it all off next year back in Aston, at the Aston Villa [soccer stadium in Birmingham],” Geezer said, “I’m definitely up for it, to finish the whole thing off. … Me and Ozzy have agreed, but I’m not sure about anybody else.”
A few days ago, also speaking to Eddie, Tony Iommi said he was interested in doing a final show. He said it “would be nice to do a one-off” and admitted he might not be able to do a full tour.
“I have to look at it realistically at my age. I can’t go out and do a two-year tour like we were doing before,” Tony said.
Frontman Ozzy has been battling health issues over the years, but his wife Sharon Osbourne said that his voice still remains in good shape. Ozzy retired from touring last year, but has expressed he wanted to do a proper farewell show.
