“I will say goodbye, and then the year after, I will start again, and then the year after, I will start again”, sang Daniel Balavoine.

Michel Sardou, he had promised not to start again.

In May 2021, he declared to the

Parisian

"I'm not saying goodbye to coming back three years later.

When I say things, I do them”.

And yet.

The 75-year-old singer announces a new tour.

Entitled "I remember a goodbye", this return to the scene will count around thirty dates, specifies RTL which announces the event.

Les lacs du Connemara,

Michel Sardou had said goodbye to the microphone in 2017. The singer had then expressed his desire to end his career on the boards, in the theater.

Nearly 4,500 spectators then came to La Seine Musicale in Boulogne-Billancourt, in the Hauts-de-Seine, to listen to his hits live one last time.

“I got tricked (…) by my wife”

In the meantime, the star of French song - regularly criticized for her lyrics - has written an autobiography

Je ne suis pas mort… je dors!

This time, Michel Sardou will begin this farewell tour (at least in theory) with a first concert at the Zénith de Rouen on October 3, 2023. He will then pass through Lille on October 17 and 18, Strasbourg on November 22, Nantes, November 14 and 15 and Toulouse November 28.

Its last date is scheduled for Paris La Défense Arena on March 16, 2024.

Michel Sardou assures him, this last tour was not his idea but that of his wife.

Anna-Marie Périer, his wife since 1999, would have pushed him to return to the stage.

“I didn't want to come back… But I got screwed over by my wife”, assures the singer who humorously accuses him of having “blackmailed” him.

The ticket office for this final tour of the septuagenarian will open on November 14 after an interview with the JT at

8 p.m.

on France 2 the day before.

Something to delight nostalgics.
