Fans were concerned for the singer’s health and the strains and pressure a tour can bring.
One fan wrote: “Please take care, that’s a very long tour.”
Another added: “Again, congratulations on your 85th birthday. I love love you and the boys. Don’t understand why you need to tour so much. (sic)
“It’s so taxing even on your hips, your knees, your feet. Stay home and enjoy life in London. You worked hard enough.”
However, the veteran performer proved people wrong as he wowed crowds and nay-sayers alike with his powerhouse voice and commendable performance.
