If you weren’t at Lollapalooza, you missed one of only a handful of performances that Black Sabbath are playing this year. Three-fourths of the original band have booked only a handful of dates while Tony Iommi recovers from cancer treatments earlier in the year, and now fan-shot video footage (courtesy of Jason Jude as branded on the clips) from the entire Lollapalooza performance has found its way online.
The group headlined the opening night festivities on Aug. 3 at Chicago’s Grant Park, with Tommy Clufetos sitting in on drums while Bill Ward holds out over a contract dispute. The set was an electric one for those in attendance. Whether it was Ozzy Osbourne‘s harp playing on ‘The Wizard,’ Clufetos’ drum solo or just the skill and mastery of Iommi and bassist Geezer Butler throughout the entire set, it was definitely a night to remember.

The band all seemed in good spirits during the set, with Osbourne having a laugh while bounding over to the woman doing sign language at the side of the stage to give her a kiss just prior to launching into ‘Iron Man.’
