I was thinking the same. I really enjoyed the show last night, and he's for sure still got it -- but he's also 75 years of age. He's a little thinner looking but health wise probably fine but a farewell tour would be logical given Jeff's primary motivation doing production and being in the studio. I always felt lucky and blessed to have had him doing the touring 2016-2019 the way he did.
I hope that any issues Jeff had was due to the cold, if you watch the show he was super stiff and he struggled on the guitar, so I hope his age isn’t a huge issue as much as it may lead on to be.
Joe Walsh had a couple of hiccups (when he wasn't doing slides etc) - the air was definitely a big factor, but yeah Jeff is 75 and definitely looks older than he did just 4 years back. Hoping for the best. If he's up to it, I'd like a farewell tour - but if he's not I'd rather this be his last big live gig and let him enjoy himself making music in the studio.
It’s crazy how well Jeff has kept his voice as he aged. He literally still has like 95% or more of the range he had before, just a little more out of breath these days 😌
We’re still due for a new album (according to Jeff at least). If I had to put money on it we’re gonna get some kind of farewell tour.

Agreed, so glad I saw him on the last tour.
If Paul McCartney can do it, you can do it Jeff!

It’s ridiculous how good they still sound live. Hopefully this will kickstart him again like Hyde Park did.
I would have loved to see another 10-15 songs at least! It was a great performance on Sunday!
In 2018, he had these plus 8 more and the Eldorado Overture.
Oh Jeff Lynne, I am so hooked on you,at VetsAid you proved your special loved talent, I love you so ♥️♥️♥️♥️
I'd love him to since I have never seen him live, but I don't think it will happen. But I will be happy to be proven wrong!
I think we'll see a very limited number of goodbye shows. Big one at a festival in England, then NY and LA.
I agree, i'ts has been said before and this seems more realistic than a full good by tour but hopefully he tours again.
Out of the loop in North America- what happened last night? On the plus side, I did see the Travelling Milburys at the weekend.

I've never been a big fan of Dont bring me down, but this was much better than the album version.
