Black Sabbath at Villa Park review: moving reunion as Ozzy rocks out
Never mind those over-hyped Oasis gigs, there was only one truly historic rock comeback show over the weekend as Birmingham's Villa Park football stadium hosted Back to the Beginning, an all-star heavy rock gathering that reunited the full original line-up of the local heroes Black Sabbath for the first time in 20 years, and the last time ever. This sold-out, all-day charity benefit event was essentially the retirement party for the band's 76-year-old singer and international treasure Ozzy Osbourne, who was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2019, and now has limited mobility. It is no exaggeration to call Black Sabbath the Beatles of heavy metal, their hugely influential legacy reflected in the multigenerational cast list of superstar head-bangers who came to pay tribute at Villa Park, all working for free. Metallica, Guns N' Roses, Anthrax, Slayer, Alice in Chains and many others performed short sets of about 20 to 30 minutes, each including at least one Sabbath or Ozzy song. • The best concerts in London and the UK to book in 2025 Not every set was a killer, but credit is due to Lzzy Hale of Halestorm, the only woman on the bill, for rocking harder than most of her male peers. Metallica were also reliably propulsive, exhilarating and adrenalised. 'Thank you Black Sabbath,' growled James Hetfield, 'for giving us a purpose in life'. Between the main bands, a fluid supergroup featuring members of Judas Priest, Smashing Pumpkins, Red Hot Chili Peppers and more also played, joined by surprise guests including the Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood and the rising pop-rock star Yungblud, who brought high-energy swagger to his reworking of Sabbath's 1972 power ballad Changes. The Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello served as musical director for the whole event, and gave a few shredding performances himself, pairing up with Aerosmith's Steven Tyler for riotously funky versions of Walk This Way and Led Zeppelin's Whole Lotta Love. The Villa Park video screens also aired fond video tributes to Ozzy and Sabbath from famous well-wishers, including Sir Elton John, Dolly Parton and Jack Black. Black Sabbath have survived multiple splits, temporary reunions and premature retirements over their six-decade career. They last played in Birmingham with two huge 'farewell' shows in 2017, but Back to the Beginning inevitably had a more concrete air of finality, given Ozzy's health issues. Even so, the singer seemed in pretty fine voice when he finally appeared on stage to huge cheers, performing two short sets from a black leather armchair adorned with skulls and bat wings. Even a fallen emperor needs a throne. Ozzy opened with five songs from his post-Sabbath solo career, including a gothically camp Mr Crowley and the rollicking audience sing-along Crazy Train. After a short break, he reappeared with his Sabbath co-founders: the guitarist Tony Iommi, the bass player Terence 'Geezer' Butler and the drummer Bill Ward. There was a palpable sense of hatchets being buried and rifts healed at Villa Park, with Ward back in the fold after his acrimonious exclusion from previous tours. Sabbath's four-song set was all too brief, but still a pleasing reminder that seminal classics such as Paranoid, War Pigs and Iron Man retain their potent fusion of jazz, blues, funk, proto-punk aggression and doomy occult imagery. Climaxing with a blaze of fireworks, this was a mostly excellent and ultimately rather moving event. The artist formerly known as the Prince of Darkness may be hanging up his horns, but he is not going gently into that good night. ★★★★☆

James May: ‘When I'm mistaken for Jeremy Clarkson, I have to go home and examine myself very deeply'
James May. But what would James Definitely Not? All sorts of things. Skydiving. Morris dancing. Living as a monk. Agricultural work. Being a high court judge. Anything that involves dressing up. I'm not too fussy about food. I can't think of anything I wouldn't eat, although I have a strange ambivalence about broccoli. I can't make my mind up about it and it infuriates people. People say: you're not doing it properly. I think: how do you know how I'm doing it? I've heard you can roast it with bits of bacon, garlic and olive oil. In which case, it's not only broccoli any more, is it? Why does the water flow anticlockwise down the plug hole in Australia but clockwise in the UK? Because of the rotation of the Earth. If you go to the equator – and I've done this – you can do an experiment with a bucket of water with a hole in the bottom. If you stand exactly on the equator and drop in a matchstick, it will stay stationary. If you walk north of the equator 100 paces, it starts going around one way. If you walk south, it starts going the other way. It's quite a boring experiment and you have to have absolutely nothing else left to do in your life. If you could have a sandwich named after you, what would you call it? I think sandwiches are crap. I'm making a series on YouTube called Sarnies of the 70s, where we dig up these terrible old fillings like Spam and Branston pickle. It's fascinating to remember what we ate when I was a child. But I describe sandwiches – and I'm afraid I also think this about pizza – as crisis food. Nobody ever says: I can't be bothered to cook tonight. Should we go out for a sandwich? No one wants a sandwich. You are reduced to having a sandwich. Both you and Clarkson own pubs. In the event of a zombie apocalypse, which pub would you rather be stuck at? Oh, mine. It's in Wiltshire. We're heavily armed down here. People queue up at Clarkson's. There's queueing protocol going on, which I don't like. We've had this argument many times. The whole point of the bar in a pub is that it's wide and shallow. It's not a hatch. Why would you queue at it? Good bar people know the order in which to serve. Alan Davies told us in this very column that he gets mistaken for you. Who do you get mistaken for, if not Alan Davies? I have been mistaken for Alan Davies. I've been told I look like King Théoden from Lord of the Rings. Robert Plant is very flattering. Billy Connolly is flattering. Unfortunately, quite a few times when I've been out walking or riding my bike around London, I've been mistaken for Jeremy Clarkson. I have to go home, examine myself very deeply and think: what have I done? The small print on your new tour, Explorers, warns of 'occasional scent, fog and other immersive theatrical elements'. What is your favourite occasional scent? Good question. I like all the obvious nature scents like flowers, freshly mown grass and rain falling on a hot pavement. I like the smell of bicycle shops because I like that smell of rubber and rubber solution. It's not a pervy or fetish thing. I like the smell of freshly pumped petrol, which smells exactly like what it isn't – which is delicious. If you get petrol in your mouth because you're siphoning it from the lawnmower, it tastes absolutely foul. But when it's coming out of the pump into your car, it's got almost a mango juice smell to it. What's been your most cringeworthy run-in with a celebrity? I haven't had any, really. I've never run up to Alan Davies and said: 'I love Top Gear. Can I have your autograph?' Would you rather die at the bottom of the ocean or deep out into space? I've wondered about dying in space. The Apollo 11 lunar module was too fragile to test on Earth, so what if it hadn't worked? They'd have been stuck on the moon for eternity. How do you end it? Do you just sit there and gradually suffocate? Or do you take off your space helmet, take a deep breath, open the door and effectively boil? Dying at the bottom of the ocean feels particularly dark and lonely. I'm going to go for space because the view in the last few seconds would be better. If you could change the size of any animal and keep it as a pet, what would you choose? A miniature elephant. I was going to say a tiger. But then you can just have a domestic cat, can't you? A miniature great white shark in a pond in your garden would be pretty cool. If you had miniature blue whales in an aquarium, they'd come up to the surface and blow off in miniature. I'd like that. Who is your biggest nemesis? Honestly, it's probably Jeremy Clarkson. James May's show Explorers – The Age of Discovery tours Australia and New Zealand from 29 July, and the UK from 20 September

At least he didn't look back in anger! Liam Gallagher fled stadium after Oasis' Cardiff tour opener while Noel was still on stage - and they're staying in separate hotels 20 miles apart
When Noel and Liam Gallagher walked on stage hand-in-hand in front of 75,000 fans on Friday night, there was a collective roar of joy – their bitter 16-year feud was finally over. Or was it? For despite the brothers' arms held united in apparent triumph, the reality behind the scenes was rather different. The Mail on Sunday can reveal there was a distinctly 'frosty' atmosphere backstage between the warring brothers, who sensationally fell out in 2009. When the two-hour set at Cardiff's Principality Stadium ended, Liam, 52, wasted no time in racing off stage and straight into a black four-by-four vehicle. Left behind was Noel, 58, still waving to fans before slowly walking off with the rest of the band. And it is understood the brothers shunned each other after the show as they were staying in separate places, with guitarist and songwriter Noel at the four-star Parkgate Hotel, which backs on to the stadium. The father-of-three was staying there with daughter Anais, 25, who supported him at the concert from the VIP section with her 26-year-old actor boyfriend, Callum Howells. Liam, meanwhile, was staying 20 miles away, close to the Celtic Manor Resort, where previous guests have included then US President Barack Obama. Friends fear relations between the brothers may deteriorate to breaking point, resulting in them ending the tour halfway through their worldwide 41-gig trip. A source close to Oasis told The MoS: 'They can't stand each other because they still have not forgiven each other. It's all very frosty and awkward. We all doubt they'll make it to Australia at this rate.' Oasis play five nights in Melbourne and Sydney from the end of October, with five more gigs in South America scheduled. Live '25 is expected to earn them £600million, with ticket prices ranging from £200 to £2,000. Earlier in the evening, Noel was spotted at the back of the stadium quietly supporting the Verve frontman, Richard Ashcroft, who opened for Oasis, while Liam was nowhere to be seen. Later, just moments before going on stage, the Gallaghers were seen standing with their backs to one another just metres apart, ignoring each other. But when they went on stage, the brothers gave the crowd what they wanted by holding hands momentarily before kicking off their 23-song Oasis marathon to a wall of cheering. It is understood the brothers shunned each other after the show as they were staying in separate places, with guitarist and songwriter Noel at the four-star Parkgate Hotel (above) They further delighted fans at the end of the gig when Liam strolled over to his older brother and embraced him in a brief handshake and shoulder bump. But the singers did not always appear in unity, often occupying different sides of the stage. When Noel played his solo songs such as Don't Look Back in Anger and Masterplan, Liam left the stage and walked past his brother without looking at him. He returned only when he was needed on vocals, and Noel would often turn his back to the audience and slink into the background. But the lingering animosity appeared to go unnoticed by the joyful fans who hailed the comeback 'biblical'. Oasis were back on stage in Cardiff last night before returning to home turf in Manchester on Friday. In August the brothers announced they would be reuniting as 'the guns have fallen silent' – an indication their often vicious quarrel was over. Liam (above) returned only when he was needed on vocals, and Noel would often turn his back to the audience and slink into the background They famously fell out after a backstage row in Paris in 2009, with Noel insisting he would never work with Liam again and describing him as 'a fork in a world of soup'. Their relationship appears to have remained fractious in the run-up to the worldwide reunion tour, with the pair turning up to rehearsals at different times. While Noel was practising with the band in May, his younger brother had flown to his £3million mansion in France. Last month, the pair had delighted fans by appearing in an Adidas shoot together but they reportedly spent only 14 minutes in the same building for the advert campaign. Liam arrived an hour earlier than Noel, insiders said, and computer software was said to have been used to mesh the two together for the photograph.
