It’s been 38 years since Ozzy Osbourne bit a bat’s head off whilst on stage.
There is still much debate about whether or not the bat was alive at the time, or perhaps it was unconscious, but it remains one of rock ‘n roll’s most iconic moments.
Ozzy’s life has been a rollercoaster ride, having left one of the world’s biggest rock bands to go it alone, before going on to star in a TV show that paved the way for what reality TV has become.
In short, the man has lived many lives and worn many different hats, which he touches on during the doccie.
Let’s start with the trailer for Biography: The Nine Lives Of Ozzy Osbourne:
More info via SXSW:
For more than five decades Ozzy Osbourne has personified rock rebellion. He’s had many lives, always landing on his feet and propelling himself toward greater success– almost dying several times along the way.
A&E’s Biography: The Nine Lives of Ozzy Osbourne follows his journey from a poor childhood and time spent in prison to fronting metal band Black Sabbath and successful solo career to role as rock’s elder statesman and lovable 21st century TV dad.
…he reveals intimate details of his successes, failures and unique ability for survival and reinvention. Features interviews with Sharon Osbourne, Rick Rubin, Ice-T, Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie, Jonathan Davis and Post Malone.
You’ve done well to make it to 71 when you’ve lived life as hard as Ozzy has.
Sadly, news broke yesterday that Ozzy is battling Parkinson’s disease, having received the diagnosis in February of last year, but he will receive specialised treatment in Switzerland in April.
The doccie will premiere at the South By Southwest film festival in March.
