Rockstar Ozyy Osborne’s fans will be sad to know that the singer has canceled his headline show in the new music festival titled Power Trip which will feature heavy metal music and be held at Empire Polo Club in Indio, California from October 6 through 8 this year.

Variety had announced in March that Ozzy would be headlining the new festival with Metallica and AC/DC, leaving fans of the rock music genre in a frenzy.

Rock icon Ozzy, 74, is suffering from symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. The singer revealed his illness to the public in 2020 but has been suffering with the debilitating disease since 2003.

The No More Tears singer said in his Instagram post: “As painful as this is, I’ve had to make the decision to bow out of performing on Power Trip in October.”

“My original plan was to return to the stage in the summer of 2024, and when the offer to do this show came in, I optimistically moved forward.”

“Unfortunately, my body is telling me that I’m just not ready yet and I am much too proud to have the first show that I do in nearly five years be half-assed.”

“The band that will be replacing me on Power Trip will be announced shortly. They are personal friends of mine and I can promise that you will not be disappointed.”

“Above all, I want to thank my fans, my band, and my crew for their unconditional loyalty and continual support.”

“I love you all and I will see you soon. God Bless, Ozzy.”
