It’s the conspiracy that has taken over the conversation of rock music all over the internet, who got fired from Back To The Beginning?!

From the time before the event even took place, speculation was rampant about who could possibly have been so abrasive as to get fired by Sharon Osbourne, who put the whole thing together? Immediately it became the hot topic in social media, as everyone began throwing out theories as to who it could be? Now, months since the concert and after the passing of his father, Jack Osbourne has opened up on what took place. Appearing on Jaime Kennedy’s podcast, the question was asked as to who could it be?

"I cannot. I cannot.” Jack said. “But what I will say is this. Everyone's online speculating who it is, and I have not seen a single accurate [guess,] Not even close."

Jack broke down exactly what took place that did eventually get the band fired in the first place. The event featured some of the biggest metal bands of all time, all of which performed without standard fees, so that proceeds could be directed to charities like Cure Parkinson's, Birmingham Children's Hospital, and Acorn Children's Hospice, which culminated in $11 million being raised.

“I will say is this. Everyone's online speculating who it is, and I have not seen a single accurate [guess,] Not even close. Like I saw something that it was Wolfgang Van Halen and it was absofuckingutely not.” Jack stated. "Like Wolf wanted to be there so badly and it was just a clash in schedule and hey, he was getting a paid gig versus an unpaid gig. Go do the paid gig. You know? Here's the caveat it was like listen, we'll pay for your crew, we'll pay your hard costs, but no one is, no one's getting paid, like individually, like the band. But what ended up happening was a lot of crew donated their time. So, they were like, 'No, we're not charging for this.' Because you know, a lot of the crews we'd all worked with for years anyway. And the one band, I will say at this point, it's like it was in the high hundreds of thousands of dollars what they said their hard costs would be… For them just to show up without any talent fee. It was… It was very frustrating."

No artist was being paid a performance fee, but the event did agree to cover essential touring expenses. Negotiations broke down when crew and travel standards became over bloated. Jack, would however say that the band previously worked with Ozzy Osbourne in some capacity and even apologized afterward,

"…But here's the thing, it was like, 'Are you fucking serious?' And then you know and then you start… Here's what, I will give the band the benefit of the doubt, and I will say it was probably the manager, but I don't know, you know? I don't know."

So, now the plot comes a little clearer, because the band we are talking about is a very well known band, that at one point got put on the map by Ozzy. The bands that have been already ruled out are Iron Maiden, by Sharon herself who confirmed they were out because of scheduling, and Jack confirmed that it wasn’t Motley Crue or Foo Fighters, also Megadeth has also been eliminated, by the band itself when they confirmed that they weren’t even asked to perform, and Rob Zombie and Marilyn Manson both attended the funeral, so it was neither of them.

So this leads one to looking up who opened for Ozzy, not in a festival or with Black Sabbath, and three bands come to light as to who it could be, based on the level of their obvious fame.

Back at the time of Ozzy’s Blizzard Of Oz tour, a young Def Leppard opened in support of “High N Dry” and in 1996 both Korn & Deftones opened, during his retirement sucks tour. Who do you think it could be? There’s a long list of bands that got their start and their push opening for the Prince Of Darkness, so let’s hear the theory’s!
