That year saw Black Sabbath and Disturbed topping the Ozzfest portion of bill.

Ozzfest 2010 (Ozzy, Motley Crue, Halford, Devildriver)”,”photo-description”:”Fourteen years after it shifted the paradigm for metal shows, Ozzfest limped to an unceremonious end (at least for six years) with its weakest lineup ever. Motley Crue’s top billing was a clever nod to their opening slot on Ozzy’s debauched 1984 tour, but the glamsters sounded woefully out of place on the otherwise brutal bill. Rob Halford took a break from the club and theater circuit to play a solo-heavy set that served mostly as a sad reminder of Judas Priest’s iconic 2004 headliner. The rest of the lineup alternated between repeat acts, underground bands and remnants from the once-mighty nu-metal scene. Clocking in at just six shows, Ozzfest 2010 showed a once-mighty festival on its last legs. “,”photo-width”:1620,”photo-height”:1080,”photo-excerpt”:”Ozzfest”}],”totalItems”:16,”credit”:”Bryan Rolli”,”creditUrl”:”https://loudwire.com/author/bryanrolli/”,”activeDomain”:”loudwire.com”,”galleryCounter”:2},”runningCounter”:1,”totalSimilarConsecutiveElements”:1},{“type”:”singlePostText”,”data”:{“text”:”
