Peter Frampton / Austin Lord PhotoLegendary rock guitarist Peter Frampton is retiring from regular touring at the end of this year, but before then he’s making one last victory lap around the country with Finale – the Farewell Tour.
His farewell tour stops in the Tivoli Theatre on Sunday, June 23, one of 50 shows presented by Sirius XM and produced by Live Nation. The tour suppports Frampton’s 17th album, “All Blues,” which was released June 7.
Frampton is retiring due to his diagnosis of Inclusion Body Myositis, a progressive muscle disorder characterized by muscle inflammation, weakness and atrophy.
Because of that diagnosis, $1 of every ticket sold on the tour, as well as any donations, will benefit The Peter Frampton Myositis Research Fund at Johns Hopkins Hospital, a newly established fund by Frampton and the hospital where he’s being treated.
