Back to the Beginning Concert Raises $190M for Charity, Draws 5M Fans

News summary

Several iconic rock and metal bands have recently been the focus of fan reflection and tribute. Cream, considered the first supergroup, announced their breakup in 1968 due to a loss of direction, with guitarist Eric Clapton citing severe workload and mental strain; Clapton later formed other influential groups and a successful solo career. The farewell concert of Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath, celebrated as a special moment with deep emotional tributes from fellow musicians, also raised significant charity funds for children's and Parkinson's-related causes. Rare footage of the elusive metal band Tool performing openly at the same event surprised and delighted fans, who rarely see the band without their typical stage effects or costumes. Meanwhile, fans continue to mourn the Beastie Boys after the death of founding member Adam "MCA" Yauch, whose cancer diagnosis shortly after their last 2009 performance led to the group's end; surviving members respect his memory by not replacing him. These events highlight the enduring impact and emotional connection fans have with legendary rock and metal musicians.
