I started touring a little bit in 1973 in support of a record I made for an independent label. In 1975, when I signed with Warner Bros., where I remained happily ensconced for the next 24 years, my touring activity increased considerably.

I've been on the tour for many, many years. It's time for me to go now, before it's too late.

I'm dedicated to touring the rest of my life.

I have a great time touring.

I love touring, I really do.

I'm lucky that I enjoy touring as much as I do. I'm not going to make a living just making records.

Touring has been a major part of my career. I've done a lot of huge shows, including a 13-night sell-out stint at the Indoor Arena in Birmingham, playing to a total audience of 65,000.

I do a lot of touring, yes, and I have my whole life ever since I was 19 years old, when I used to tour with Al Jarreau, Rickie Lee Jones, and Jackson Browne as a side musician.

Then, in 1983 I went on a very long concert tour all over Europe.

My first tour I was on the road for 18 months. You're just out there promoting.
