    <span style=&quot;font-size: small;">He&rsquo;s talked about turning down his touring schedule for years, but it appears Bob Seger is more determined than ever to terminate his touring days. In an interview with Canada&rsquo;s QMI Agency, the 67-year old rocker said, &ldquo;I can&rsquo;t see myself doing this when I&rsquo;m 70. I&rsquo;ve had a wonderful, wonderful run and my audiences have just kept coming and it&rsquo;s really nice but all good things have to come to an end.&rdquo; Seger and the Silver Bullet Band&rsquo;s current North American tour stops tonight in St. Paul, MN.</span>

  2. Clapton Claims Touring Days Near End

    <span style=&quot;font-size: small;">The man known as Slowhand says he&rsquo;s ready to slow down and put his touring days behind him. In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Eric Clapton says he will cease doing long tours when he turns 70. The guitarist, whose new album, Old Sock, will arrive March 12, said, &ldquo;If I could play around my neighborhood that would be great. But for me, the struggle is the travel. When I&rsquo;m 70, I&rsquo;ll stop. I won&rsquo;t stop playing or doing one-offs, but I&rsquo;ll stop touring, I think.&rdquo;</span>

  5. Lady A Wins Billboard Touring Award

    <span style=&quot;font-size: small;">Billboard awarded Lady Antebellum with their Breakthrough Award at the 2012 Billboard Touring Awards last week. Millions enjoyed the group&rsquo;s world tour this year, almost as much as the band did themselves! In fact, Dave Haywood says the tour has had a huge impact on their songwriting as they prepare their next studio album. &ldquo;I think you know getting out and touring this year has kinda shed a new light for us as songwriters, on where we want to go. I mean, we started last November on Own The Night and we were blown away by the response all throughout this year and this summer, and you really kinda realize what songs translate to a large audience. And that&rsquo;s kinda helped shape our writing.&rdquo; Lady A&rsquo;s Own the Night World Tour DVD will be released in the U.S. on December 4th.</span>
