Touring ?

SO, on the Jay Leno show, when Prince was on.. I could have sworn I heard him say that this tour was it.... and the venue for St. Louis has this advertised as a farewell tour if I'm not mistaken...

sooo... is this right? Or, I'm I just making stuff up? Correct me if I am wrong.. I don't like being confused.

It was referred to in the press release and subsequently by interviewers as the last tour on which he will play his greatest hits. Prince has 'corrected' these statements by stating that it is the last time in a while that he will play the hits, in order to make room for newer material

This implicitly suggests that he'll be performing for a while longer yet, not only to perform a 'hits-free set at a later date, but also to possibly reintroduce the same hits in the future.

I've never heard it suggested that this will be his farewell tour.

Ok. Well, this makes sense. I mean, with the load of material that he has produced over the years, I can see how it would get old and hard to try and fit it in at every event.
