Kayak farewell tour in 2022

 In april and may 2022, Kayak will embark on their farewell tour. I could write my own story about this, but the official statement from Ton Scherpenzeel more or less says it all...:



“It’s been a great ride but we’ve come to the end of the line. As the other band members would have liked to continue, the decision was extra difficult. And as a musician I still do enjoy playing itself. But it takes a lot more than just that to make a good tour, and circumstances for bands like us are not getting any easier. In that respect I feel I’ve reached the limit of my capabilities. And however sad it may be, I’d rather stop too early than go on too long.”

Kayak does not rule out that the band might get together again for special projects or occasions, but as a touring unit it will be over after May 21. The last show in The Netherlands will be on May 14 in De Vorstin in Hilversum- accidentally the town where it all started back in 1972.
