BLACK SABBATH Guitarist TONY IOMMI Guests On Talk Is Jericho Podcast; Hints At Possible One-Off Festival Appearances Following Farewell Tour

Black Sabbath guitar legend Tony Iommi recently guested on Fozzy vocalist Chris Jericho’s official podcast, Talk Is Jericho. Following is an overview of what to expect when listening to the audio player below.

“It’s episode 300… and there’s only one person big enough, legendary enough to mark such a momentous occasion – Black Sabbath founding guitarist Tony Iommi! And man, he’s telling some of the craziest rock & roll stories – from meeting Sabbath’s mafia-like manager Don Arden to a few of Ozzy’s mythic missed gig tales. He’s also breaking down some of those classic Sabbath riffs and songs, sharing memories of Ronnie James Dio, and giving his thoughts on Spinal Tap. Plus, he’s speaking candidly about his own recent battle with cancer and the role that played in Sabbath’s decision to call it quits after this final tour!”

Following the US shows, the greatest metal band of all time headed to Mexico and will then hit South America where they’ll wrap up their 2016 dates before performing the last shows of their career, back where it all started in England. The last leg of The End tour will start with a January 17th show in Cologne, Germany before the band returns to the UK.
