This is a huge honor for Ozzy as we have recognized his significant and lasting contributions to live music and his skill of art and craft of performance to really reach fans and give them the ultimate concert experience.

"Ozzy has altered the course of rock music and live performance through his work with Black Sabbath and as a hugely popular solo artist, and his continued commitment to playing live makes him the perfect choice for The Billboard Legend Of Live Award," says Ray Waddell, Billboard's executive director of content and programming, Touring & Live Entertainment. "There is no doubt that Ozzy's impact on live music, including pioneering the multi-act rock festival touring with Ozzfest, will be felt for many years to come, and his efforts continue to shape the touring landscape in this century."
