"Elton John Won’t Stop Performing After Farewell Tour, David Furnish Confirms"...
[www.msn.com]
Well the headline is misleading clickbait. Furnish doesn't say Elton won't stop. He just says there's "the possibility of a special one-off or a small residency in one venue for a limited period of time." He also says "it wouldn’t surprise me if he didn’t do any more live shows, either."

The good ol' "may or may not" Americanism. Redundancy at its finest. Oh, "the possibility" followed up with "wouldn't be surprised if he didn't do any more live shows, either" is just more goldfish in an aquarium that clearly deserves more interesting fish: complete bullshit.
I guess it would have helped if I actually read the article but I don't read crap like that. Click bait indeed...sorry lads!

Hopefully you never start - but I do expect a 300 to 500 or so words review of the headline next time.

I will write that...and dig up this old thread, when Sir Elton announces a small series of dates in early 2024.

I had to turn the final concert off. To me, exceedingly dull & disappointing. I saw him do "The Million Dollar Piano" in Vegas & that was actually pretty good. Elton told stories between songs & was hilarious. Elton was my first rock show back in 197cough cough. This is easy listening pap for the most part. Just my opinion. Interesting: the first show I saw was the same tour as the first Dodger Stadium show. Full circle I guess.

"Final UK show of his last ever tour" is not the same as "last ever UK show".He may well do one-offs or even a series of shows in London in the future. Who knows?

Following Elton for years, I feel like he won't be done playing any hits. He just won't be touring on the regular anymore. He very clearly stated at the beginning of this tour he didn't want to be out on the road as much, but that he might still do the one off occasionally. I don't in any way think he's less likely to play Crocodile Rock anymore as he is to be more likely to play Bite Your Lip or something. He's just kinda done touring. You throw enough money at Elton and he'll play anywhere, but it'll be for smaller audiences and this'll probably be the last time most people see him unless you're very wealthy or willing to travel.
