"I`ve been a colossal pain where this continuously unpredictable illness is concerned, and now the physical limits have been reached. "The tour had, in fact, been fantastic for all of us - a new slice of life full of concentrated power. The audiences everywhere have given so much, although I know that neither of us will ever receive our due," the singer said. "I hope this isn`t the end, and I hope there will be other chances, minus the heavy burden of illness. Knots of grief today, but full of resolve for tomorrow," he added. ANI
