Ozzy Osbourne's Shreveport Legacy

There are probably some people out there who had a chance to see Ozzy perform all 5 of these Shreveport shows. But since his first solo show was in 1982, which was 43 years ago, that number is sadly shrinking. If you were 21-years-old during Ozzy's first Shreveport concert, you're around 64 now. So those who were a little bit older during that first show are now approaching 70-years-old.

But for that lucky group, they had a chance to see 5 performances from one of the greatest of all time, in their own backyard.
