Black Sabbath, the band that Osbourne famously fronted, played their first U.S. gig at Rowan University. The school shared a flier from the band's inaugural stop in the states and a cheeky story about the gig. Black Sabbath played their first U.S. gig on Oct. 30, 1970 at the then-Glassboro State University.

Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi said he thinks bandmate Ozzy Osbourne was "determined" to play the group's farewell show and "really just held out" to do so weeks before his death.

Osbourne died on Tuesday at 76, just weeks after he and Black Sabbath performed at their farewell Back to the Beginning concert earlier in July.
