MK did a lot of promo for the ODR album that still goes on but he never had a guitar in his hands. In former times an interview was followed by a live perfomance presenting one song (or two).

Why not now? Is it due to health problems that do not enable him to play a tune live?
I mean, It can't be his general farewell to live touring.

I'd say so....

He did in his interviews in several magazines, even on radio interviews.

The real reason - not the Covid thing.

I think it's plain to see how he's been more and more struggling to play, and that's been going on for years. It was visible even during the last tour, or even before that.
If he wanted to reveal any details, he could long have done so, or maybe he will one day. But for me it's perfectly fine if he doesn't, because it's a private and personal thing even for a "celebrity".
He gets my full respect and admiration not only for the music he creates, but also for going on, adapting and finding new ways of being creative and inspiring to a lot of people.

Real reason? He is almost 75 and can't play live anymore.

He's been telling he struggles to play, and also he's not in form enough to keep touring and rather been at home, that he can't do it anymore physically. In different interviews each bit.

Abou the real reason, if there is any, that's very personal and should remain as that.
