A star-studded lineup of rockers joined forces to honor Ozzy Osbourne during the 2024 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony.
The ceremony kicked off with the one and only Jack Black delivering what can only be described as one of the most epic homages of all time. Black recounted his first time coming across The Price of Darkness’s record, Blizzard of OZ before detailing Osbournes extensive rock/metal history.
But the highlight of the ceremony was a backing band of Rock and Metal legends coming out to perform Ozzy’s greatest hits from over the years. The line up included Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith, Metallica bassist Robert Trujillo, producer and multi-instrumentalist Andrew Watt and keyboardist Adam Wakeman,Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan, Wolfgang Van Halen, Ozzy’s longtime guitarist, Zakk Wylde, and country star Jelly Roll. Osbourne’s close friend Billy Idol got in on the fun during the third and final song of the set, “No More Tears.” Idol was joined by Steve Stevens, his longtime guitarist and collaborator.
