Buckcherry Members and Crew Safe After Deadly South Carolina Tour Bus Crash

DJNQL

A frightening moment on the road for Buckcherry. The band says all of its members and crew are safe following a deadly multi-vehicle crash in South Carolina early Friday morning.

According to a statement from the band, the accident happened around 2 a.m. Friday on Interstate 26 in Spartanburg County while Buckcherry was traveling as part of its Roar Like Thunder Tour.

Reports citing the South Carolina Highway Patrol say the chain of events began with an earlier crash. A driver involved in that collision reportedly exited his vehicle and stepped into the roadway, where he was struck and killed by a Toyota sedan.

It remains unclear exactly what role Buckcherry's tour bus played in the incident or whether the bus made contact with any other vehicles.

The band expressed its deepest condolences to the victim's family and thanked fans for their concern and support following the frightening incident.

Despite the crash, Buckcherry continued with its tour and its scheduled Saturday performance in Fort Lauderdale went ahead as planned.

Formed in 1995, Buckcherry is fronted by singer Josh Todd, who is the band's only remaining original member. Known for hits including "Lit Up" and "Crazy Bitch," the band continues to tour in support of its latest music.

Fans can continue to follow Buckcherry's tour schedule and official updates through the band's official channels.

Tommy Lee of Mötley Crüe made a new friend before a recent show in Florida.

He stopped by Save the Chimps and met Limbani, a 9-year-old rescue chimp who's still learning how to socialize with other chimps.

So Tommy grabbed a bongo and started playing…and Limbani started DANCING.

And it gets better. They made a painting together called "Wild Side" which sold for $5,000 to benefit the sanctuary.

OZZFEST Back in 2027 with a Return to Birmingham for a Hometown Tribute to OZZY OSBOURNE

View-recent-photos-1

Metalheads, get ready. Ozzfest is officially coming back — and the first stop is going to be incredibly meaningful.

After months of speculation, the resurrected Ozzfest has officially confirmed that its 2027 return will hit Villa Park in Birmingham, England, the hometown of Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath.

The announcement comes after Sharon Osbourne previously revealed plans to bring Ozzfest back next year. While the exact date and lineup have not been announced yet, the festival's social media accounts have now made the Birmingham return official.

And there couldn't be a more fitting location.

Villa Park was the site of "Back To The Beginning" in July 2025, the massive all-star concert that served as the final live celebration of Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne. It was also Ozzy's final live performance.

Just over two weeks after that historic show, Ozzy passed away at the age of 76.

Now, Ozzfest is returning to the same stadium where the Prince of Darkness took his final bow.

Jack Osbourne Says The 2027 Return Of 'Ozzfest' Will Take Place In A Single-Day Format, Main Headliner Announcement Expected Soon

OZZFEST IS GOING BACK TO WHERE IT ALL BEGAN

Ozzy and his Black Sabbath bandmates originally came from Birmingham, making the city a crucial part of heavy metal history.

So bringing Ozzfest back to Birmingham isn't simply another festival announcement. It's a celebration of the music, the city and the legacy of the man who helped change heavy metal forever.

Sharon Osbourne has also previously indicated that conversations with potential artists have already been happening, meaning the lineup could be shaping up behind the scenes.

And Birmingham may only be the beginning.

OZZFEST COULD BE COMING BACK TO AMERICA, TOO

Sharon has suggested that the 2027 revival will include North American dates, with plans reportedly calling for a two-day event in the U.S. following the Birmingham shows.

That means American metal fans could soon get their own Ozzfest comeback.

For fans who remember the original festival, that is huge news.

Ozzfest became one of the defining touring metal festivals of the late '90s and 2000s, introducing generations of fans to some of the biggest names in heavy music.

Now, after years away, the Ozzfest name is officially back.

The only question left is:

WHO'S GOING TO BE ON THAT BILL?

With no lineup announced yet, the speculation is already going to be wild. Will we see some of the legendary bands that helped make Ozzfest famous? Newer metal heavyweights? Or a combination of both?

Whatever happens, one thing is certain:

Ozzfest is coming back — and it's going home to Birmingham first.

And when those stage lights come on at Villa Park in 2027, it will be impossible not to think about the man whose music made all of this possible.

Long live Ozzy. Long live Black Sabbath. And welcome back, Ozzfest.
