Ozzy texts goodbye as chaos steals final moment with Zakk at last Birmingham gig
Zakk Wylde recounts a backstage whirlwind at Ozzy Osbourne’s final show in Birmingham, where chaos and well-wishers eclipsed their chance for a proper goodbye. The last exchange between them—a text from Ozzy apologizing for the commotion and signing off with love—carries the weight of unintended finality.
