Black Sabbath @ The Molson Amphitheater, Toronto. (Aug 29, 2016)

History was made tonight, as for one final time Black Sabbath played their live show in Toronto as The End tour rolled through town. The amphitheater was packed with people of all ages. The old dudes and dudettes rocked out with the younger generations as everyone came together for this ritual experience. The show delivered everything to be expected, starting with their title track and progressing through hit after hit.

The set list was absolutely packed featuring masterpieces such as Fairies, Into the Void, Dirty Women, War Pigs, Hand of Doom, and Rat Salad! I was also delighted to hear Snowblind live with other highlights of the show including the 5 minute drum solo leading into Iron Man and the unbelievable bass solo by Geezer which melded perfectly into N.I.B. Iommi continued to prove that he is a walking God, and Ozzy was absolutely spot on all night. Again, what an unbelievable show. Cheers to the band for helping to show me the way of metal all those years ago! Black Sabbath rocks live just as hard today as they did for their first show around 47 years ago.
