PORTLAND – Hard-rock legend Ozzy Osbourne has postponed his Thursday night concert appearance at the Cumberland County Civic Center because of illness.

A spokeswoman for the arena said Osbourne came down with the flu and the show is being rescheduled for Jan. 31. Tickets for the original show will be honored at that time.

Osbourne’s tour with Rob Zombie is scheduled to resume Saturday in Washington, D.C.
