Rock legend Ozzy Osbourn postpones all his 2019 tour dates as he recovers from an injury suffered while recovering from pneumonia.

The star fell and aggravated old injuries from a 2003 all-terrain vehicle accident that required surgery last month, a statement read. He will remain under doctor’s care as he recovers.

“I can’t believe I have to reschedule more tour dates,” Osbourne said in the statement. “Words cannot express how frustrated, angry and depressed I am not to be able to tour right now. I’m grateful for the love and support I’m getting from my family, my band, friends and fans, it’s really what’s keeping me going. Just know that I am getting better every day…I will fully recover…I will finish my tour…I will be back!”

This isn’t the first time in recent years that the star has had to postpone tour dates. Last October, the “Paranoid” singer suffered a show-canceling health scare when he developed an infection in his hand that required surgery.

Concert-goers were asked to hold on to their tickets because they will be honored for the new dates as the shows were expected to be rescheduled for 2020.

“I’m not retiring,” he said. “It’s ‘No More Tours,’ so I’m just not doing world tours anymore. I’m still going to be doing gigs, but I’m not going on tour for six months at a time anymore. I’d like to spend some time at home.”
