End clap for Michel Sardou. The singer is currently on tour throughout France to bid farewell to his audience. An event which began on October 3 but which faced many twists and turns. For good reason, while he was due to perform at the beginning of December, the interpreter of Connemara Lakes was forced to cancel three dates after being affected by Covid-19 and hospitalized. The announcement was made on his Facebook account: “The Brest concert, scheduled for Saturday December 2, had to be canceled a few hours before the scheduled time […] We wish him a speedy recovery and hope that he will be able to reunite with his audience in Geneva on Friday December 8.” And of course, this caused great concern among the singer’s many fans. He wanted to be reassuring a few days later, Friday December 8, 2023 in the Telegram. After confiding that he had been “KO”, he said he was ready to get back on stage. “I’m going to see how it goes. Normally, the voice is there. Will I be able to dance? But I haven’t done it often, so it doesn’t matter. I’ll see how I get on behaves. I went to the hospital, they did tests on me everywhere. They gave me medicine. Things that blow you away. I have the impression that there is an evolution, there There must be a variant or I don’t know what. I was completely knocked out, not being able to walk.” he explained.
Michel Sardou: “Song and theater are over”
And his farewell tour will be marked by another highlight: the last four concerts of his career. Anne-Marie’s companion will be present this weekend, Saturday March 16 and Sunday March 17, 2024 at La Défense Arena and will then make up for the two dates canceled when he was affected by Covid-19, Monday March 25, 2024 in Clermont -Ferrand and Friday March 29, 2024 in Brest. In an interview given to Parisian Wednesday March 13, 2024 to discuss this end of tour, Michel Sardou took the opportunity to announce that he was retiring definitively after these final dates. “Song and theater are over. Seriously […] This time, I stick to it. Before I sing again, I’ll really have to lengthen them… I’m too expensive (laughs). I guarantee you. Same for the theater. There are too many shows. When I had my theater in Paris, there were 360 per evening! How can people go out so much? On March 30, I am on vacation, retired. It surprises you ? Me too (laughs). No, the only thing that would amuse me is to shoot with Olivier Marchal, because I like him. But this summer, I’m going to take my boat, swim in the open sea, naked, and I’ll talk to the dolphins…” he assures. A promise that he will manage to keep? The future will tell…
