"“Well it's one more for the road,” he says. “After finishing The Who's final tour of the US, it's time for me as a solo artist to possibly do the same. After touring solo with different bands of musicians for the last 17 years, a less grueling life becomes more attractive, I'll see. With my present line up of nine musicians, I have this opportunity to see your beautiful country and enjoy the hospitality you have shown me over so many years.”"
"“I'll be off the backing tracks and always searching for different soundscapes to present the songs. It's a lot of fun and gives me the chance to have a Great Night Out.”"
"Shows happen this summer and fall, starting on August 23 in Mesa, AZ, and wrapping upon September 29 in Medford, MA. The NYC show happens on the penultimate night of the run, at Town Hall on September 27, and there's a Port Chester, NY show at Capitol Theatre on September 22. Tickets to those and all dates go on sale Friday, May 15 at 10 AM local, with various presales starting Wednesday, May 13 at 10 AM local."

With a current lineup of nine musicians, he plans to visit the U.S., enjoy hospitality, and perform without backing tracks. He will focus on finding different soundscapes to present songs and describes the experience as fun and a chance for a Great Night Out. The tour is scheduled for summer and fall 2026, beginning August 23 in Mesa, Arizona, and ending September 29 in Medford, Massachusetts. Tickets for all dates go on sale May 15 at 10 AM local, with presales starting May 13 at 10 AM local.
