Billy Corgan's Reflection At The Black Sabbath Separation Concert

JAKARTA - The SmashingGod's frontman, Billy Corgan, shared his involvement in Black Sabbath's final farewell concert at Villa Park, Birmingham last weekend, describing it as a season full of mixed feelings.

In the reflection delivered through a tweet on X, Corgan, who claimed to have admired Sabbath since childhood, was touched when he saw his idol appearing in front of 45.000 other fans.

I first heard of Black Sabbath on my uncle's stereo about 50 years ago. So, it's really not real standing on a football field with 45,000 viewers to watch the end of this great institutional group 'which has touched me personally, professionally, and sometimes even intimately in the moments of work and stolen friendship," Corgan wrote.

"Thank you Tony, Bill,ployer, and Ozzy for everything you've done for so many people," he continued.

Corgan also thanked Sharon, Ozzy's wife, who gave her the opportunity to share the stage with the idol.

"I owe Sharon a favor for asking me to take part. It was truly an honor, more than I can count," said the 58-year-old musician. And watching the passionate performance of so many people in training: those I admire from afar, those I know too, and seeing the change into music shows and friendship for almost 10 hours is something to watch.

Music, said Corgan, is the soundtrack of life together. But according to him, the concert is something really special. Because three-dimensional soundtracks are being made live. All of this is to celebrate the band's return which used to be known as Earth.

Corgan said, every great journey has trials and misery, as well as tragedy and surprises. That's where the wonders and tears lie.

"I cheered yesterday in joy for being in the right place at the right time, and I cried in my heart as my heroes fell on their magical and mystical sword to say goodbye," he added. We have the music, and we have it in our hearts. You don't have to be a musician to understand. However, it helps, at least if you try to break an elusive code in the cosmos.

At the end of his reflection, Corgan called the concert a marker of Black Sabbath as well as going for his fans.

"Now this band is here and not here; with us, but gone. As it should be," he said.
