Rod recently confirmed that unlike the likes of Paul Simon and Elton John, he isn't even considering retiring from touring.
"All good things must end," he said. "Not for me, not yet. I'm not even thinking about it."
Rod's new album The Tears of Hercules is released on November 12, 2021 and was preceded by the single 'One More Time'.

Faces have also pledged to play some live shows together in the near future.
