David Bowie’s producer Tony Visconti has revealed that the singer has no intention on touring during 2013.
Fans had previously hoped the star would make a live return this year, after dropping a surprise new single and announcing an upcoming album.
Sadly, however, Visconti has ruled this out.
Speaking to NME, the producer said:
“He’s fairly adamant he’s never gonna perform live again… One of the guys would say, ‘Boy, how are we gonna do all this live?’ and David said, ‘We’re not’. He made a point of saying that all the time.”
Bowie turned 66 years-old this week and has suffered several health problems over the past few years.
