Singer Sir Elton John announces final tour: 'I want to go out with a bang'

Rocket Man singer Sir Elton John says he wants to "go out with a bang" as he revealed plans for a final world tour. The 70-year-old British musician - who has been touring for nearly 50 years - said he will no longer perform live following his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour, which is due to start in September. Announcing his retirement plans, the star said his "priorities have changed" as he and husband David Furnish care for their two sons, Elijah and Zachary. "In 2015 we sat down with a school schedule and I thought I don't want to miss too much of this," he said. "My life has changed, my priorities have changed and my priority now is my family."
Sir Elton said the mammoth 300-date tour was a chance "to say thank you to all my fans around the world and then to say goodbye." "I have had a good run ... I want to go out with a bang," he added. Asked if he could later reconsider his decision, Sir Elton vowed not to do a "Cher", adding: "This is the end". But he also said: "I'm stopping touring - I'm not stopping music." Sir Elton is due to see out his Las Vegas residency, which runs until 19 May, and play two dates in Georgia in June and July. He will kick off his three-year tour in the US in September before arriving in the UK and Europe in April 2019. Sir Elton, whose mother Sheila died in December, rejected claims his decision to stop performing was due to health problems.
