I never thought that the last big one would be not touring in Europe too  :(
If I realised that the chances were slim,
How come I'm so surprised when the tide rolled in

I'm old man. No more traveling for me"

I do not want to believe it...
I know the way I can see by the moonlight
Clear as the day
Now come on woman, come follow me home

I guess 'one off' or a few night stints at the RAH are an option??

Perhaps a UK tour?

It was genuinely sad to hear it confirmed during a concert.  You could've heard a pin drop.

I don’t think he’ll actually stop playing live completely. I think he’ll continue playing shows for as long as he is physically capable of doing so, but it’ll most likely be one-off gigs here and there, such as promo shows when he releases new albums, or short runs of concerts at places like the Albert Hall. It’s immensely sad that the touring will come to an end. He has made a lot of wonderful memories for all of us fans but, as they say, all good things must come to an end. Hopefully there is still plenty of new music ahead.
