| I asked him if he would do another solo acoustic tour after the Brainwave event at the Rubin Museum, NYC a year or so ago and he joked/laughed "that´s too much work!!" It was nice to see him in such a friendly and talkative mood anyways!
Also, he kindly signed my Hearts And Bones CD that evening, personalizing the signature with my name as well. That meant so much to me as Hearts and Bones is one of my favorite PS albums. |

 | With what we have heard so far in terms of ´new songs´, an acoustic tour would make sense.
Although I don´t know if we would still need a few members of his band with him, mainly because he has refered a lot to the fact that his hability to play is limited when he sings. |

| An acoustic tour would be really enjoyable. I wouldn´t take his comment to me at the Rubin Museum to mean that he will never do an acoustic tour. Back in 1986, shortly after his SNL TV appearance with Ladysmith Black Mambazo, I met him in front of the Dakota and asked him if he was planning on taking "Graceland" on tour. He responded something like, "no, I´m going to take a LONG vacation..." One year later, I was back in NYC seeing the Graceland tour at Radio City Music Hall. I guess you never know! :) |

| No tour with Graceland. LOL !!!
I guess at that point, he had not anticipated the huge success of the album.
Yep, unfortunately guys, I think we have learnt over the years that Simon´s statements are not reliable in any way, and that he changes his mind quickly ! |

 | I put "all but retired." It was a statement made by PS before Graceland was made. Some of us have knowledge from way back believe it or not - sometimes it´s worth listening to and not necessary to try and put down / contradict all of the time. |

| I considered it, until I saw the CT and NJ dates. I probably will go to at least Atlantic City. Hopefully they will add some more east coast dates as well. |
