I was very sad about that news from Guy. But to be honest, we all knew it.
An era ended now for me. 35 Live Shows or something from 1991-2019.
No tours to look forward to. 
But after I saw him 2019 it was his best descision.
He got old now and I really got scared after I saw the video of Playtime Deluxe. in 2016.
His fingers and hands were really shaking. Something is going on there and got worse after that.

I also really look forward to new music and albums and hope that he will do some RAH shows.
I am pretty sure he does. As he said in Mannheim, my last concert: I will do it maybe until I fall over...

Long live MK. Our hero

From Dr Fletch:

Q.  Question is do you think Mark and the band will play live again? Would Mark consider a week at RAH or was the last tour it?

A.  I doubt there will be another tour but I hope I am wrong.

Pretty definitive as far as Guy usually goes I suppose.

It's in his back, his spine, and it's affecting his hands, his nervous system and the way his body moves/responds to stimulae. He could barely walk at the start of the tour. It got slightly better as it progressed, but he never got rid of the bench, and there was no throwing the guitar in the air as in 2010-2015, for example.
I studied Medicine for 2 years before I decided I would be a terrible doctor, and I am 99% sure he's got a CNS disorder.

[Darling Pretty]

you might be 99% right.
I also think the same

He can play while sitting on a chair. Like he did 10 years ago. He did a whole tour sitting down.....

Sitting won't help his hands or fingers though!   

[hunter]

I think we can be sure that if there was a way, he'd keep on touring. If sitting down would be a solution, then he'd do just that.

[rmarques821]

I've come to terms that he will never play a concert again. He's given a lot of them over the years.
I am looking forward to perhaps an increase in studio productivity and new albums. He may not be able to play concerts anymore, but he is still a master a writing songs and making albums. So, I'm very happy that he still wants to that and he is healthy enough to do it.

Bring on 2023!

I think Mark is done with touring but he will always try to write and try to record as long as he can move. He's been obsessed of doing all these things for so many, many years. He can't live without making music. It's his destiny. He can't just stop. Thanks to his wonderful studio, where he can go whenever he feels like, we hopefully will hear lots of new music from him in the years to come.
But in the end Mark knows best what is good for him and we all have to accept it. Just my opinion.

This is also my opinion. I agree with every word.

[Klaus74]

Me too. The personal health ist the most important and essential god-given thing to all humans, celebrities and normal people including. So let us hope, that Mark has a clear mind in the future, able to compose some of his finest music and lyrics.
