Basically as expected for the various reasons known. Not much of a "World" Tour, but am happy if the album makes it and wonder who will finish the drum parts......

Black Sabbath originally planned on launching an extensive European tour this summer, but the plans were scrapped due to Iommi's condition. Osbourne, bassist Butler and guitarist Zakk Wylde will perform at many of the dates as Ozzy and Friends." It's unclear who will play drums. Black Sabbath including Tony Iommi will perform at the Download Festival in the U.K on June 10th. That show is being billed as their sole European performance. In a recent radio interview, Sharon Osbourne said that Black Sabbath were going to perform one show in America this August. She declined to name the location, but Lollapalooza is being held at Chicago's Grant Park in August, making that one of the likely candidates.
