"I mean, I looked in the magazine, ' Ozzy's on his last legs.' I'm fucking not dying… Come on, guys. "The fucking press drive you nuts," Ozzy said. Osbourne also commented on the fact that some of the media outlets reported that he was retiring from the road after he released his statement canceling his tour. But right now I can't book tours because right now I don't think I could pull them off." But right now, if you said to me, 'Can you go on the road in a month?' I couldn't say yes. So, if I can ever get back to where I can tour again, fine. I've come to the point where Sharon says to me, 'You know what? The truth of the matter is you can't keep booking tours and failing, canceling. He said: "Well, I've been working my guts out to try and get back on my feet. Ozzy most recently gave an update on his touring status last month during an episode of SiriusXM's "Ozzy Speaks". Oz has spoken too about Sharon's fears of his Parkinson's condition prompting him to suffer falls like Michael J Fox." And she is particularly worried about him losing his balance and suffering injuries. Firstly, she has deep concerns about his balance and wants him to get back to walking properly, before even discussing comebacks. However, Sharon is concerned about her husband being put through a heavy duty work load around gigs. The source added: "That is Ozzy's determination. He feels a lot of options are on the table, but Oz is not ruling out Vegas or L.A. But there is talk of bringing in some special effects and even stage machinery to have the chair move around. " Ozzy worries that he may not be able to sit still, which could be challenging. And he feels Phil showed that audiences do resonate with you. But he is considering doing gigs in a throne, like what Axl did in 2016 with GUNS N' ROSES. It frustrates him that doing a full-90 minute show, filled with his famous stage stomping and crowd interactive moves, is off the table. He has declared: 'I am gonna fucking get back on stage.' He still has issues with his balance and cannot stand unaided for long periods of time on his legs. Ozzy has reportedly taken inspiration from GUNS N' ROSES singer Axl Rose, who performed on tour with a damaged foot on a throne, and Phil Collins, who completed GENESIS's last tour while sitting on a chair.Ī friend of Ozzy told The Sun: " Ozzy is refusing to give up on his hope of getting on stage despite his statement last month. The report comes a month after Osbourne released a statement in which he said that he would have to cancel his tour because of a spinal injury he suffered four years ago and other health problems. According to The Sun, Ozzy Osbourne has vowed to return to the live stage, even if he has to perform in a chair.
