Decision to call off the 'No More Tours 2' tour comes after doctors determined that the former Black Sabbath rocker may undergo another surgery to treat multiple infections in his right hand.

AceShowbiz - Ozzy Osbourne has canceled the remaining four shows on his North American "No More Tours 2" trek as he continues to recover from hand surgery.

Following an evaluation from his doctors, the rocker has been told he may need a second surgery over the weekend to treat an infection in his right hand.

Ozzy originally pulled out of a show at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California last Saturday night (October 06) after checking in to hospital. He then cancelled concerts in Chula Vista and the Hollywood Bowl in California and the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

All four shows will be rescheduled for 2019.

"I'm so f**king bummed about cancelling these shows," The "Crazy Train" singer says. "The tour had been going great and we were really looking forward to these last few gigs. We're hoping everyone will be patient and we'll look forward to seeing them at the shows next year."
