So, the breaking news are that MK wears nurse cloths backstage and on stage he wears pyjamas...

Yes, between these clothes and the glasses he looks like a surgeon about to enter the operating theatre

Since there probably won't be any breaking news, maybe we should change the title to "The not so breaking news thread".

Just read Guys diary of the Nimes show. He said things like: Last show there and au revoir Nimes.
Maybe MK really retires?

That's been his tone since the start - nothing's changed.  Not really sure why people are so certain to think he's going to continue anyway.  So he altered his farewell speech slightly, but surely it was just to make it less sombre?  He realised his original one just killed the atmosphere stone dead.

I have had this feeling the whole week... that when the US tour starts, we will se TR + BIA standard in the set!!  :'(

Good for the people attending these shows, worse for us who have attended already, hoped for BIA and got PTTE... TR i realised early it would not feature after the spanish shows... but something tells me it will in the US.  :thumbsdown

That's just guesswork and intentionally negative thinking. It's based on absolutely nothing.
If i was a Fender guitar, Fender painted red...

Maybe not. Herb Alpert's doing gigs at 84 years of age. Les Paul was doing regular shows in New York in his 90's.
