Ozzy Osbourne's Atlanta show postponed due to post-pneumonia injury

The 70-year-old Osbourne and founding member of Black Sabbath has reportedly headlined 16 arena/stadium tours since 1980.

It's been a rough year for legacy rockers halting large-scale concert tours.

First, the Rolling Stones had to suspend a mammoth U.S tour, reportedly due to frontman Mick Jagger needing heart surgery.

And now, the iconic Ozzy Osbourne has been forced to postpone his own tour of North American cities, citing an injury that occurred while recently dealing with a bout of pneumonia.

As such, Ozzy's May 27 show at State Farm Arena won't go on as planned. 

Prior to Osbourne's injury, the Atlanta show would have launched a three-month tour covering 26 American and Canadian venues.

"I can’t believe I have to reschedule more tour dates. Words cannot express how frustrated, angry and depressed I am not to be able to tour right now," said the 70-year-old Osbourne, in a press release. "I'm grateful for the love and support I'm getting from my family, my band, friends and fans, it's really what's keeping me going.  

"Just know that I am getting better every day ... I will fully recover ... I will finish my tour ... I will be back!"

According to the release, the postponed portion of the North American tour will likely reconvene in February 2020. 

For those holding tickets/passes to next month's Atlanta show, the tickets will be honored for the rescheduled time/date at State Farm Arena.
