Earlier in the week it was said by Black Sabbath bassist Geezer Butler that estranged drummer Bill Ward had turned down an offer to play the final show of the band’s ongoing farewell tour. Ward himself wasted no time in denying the claims, stating that no such offer was ever made. Butler himself has since publicly apologized for making those statements, tweeting:
It appears Bill Ward was never invited to do a last show – my mistake. Sorry @billwarddrums
