REO Speedwagon Announces End To Touring Starting In 2025

The rock band REO Speedwagon announced on Monday that 2024 will the band's final year of touring.

In a post to social media, the band said it will “cease touring effective January 1, 2025.”

That statement references “irreconcilable differences” between Bruce Hall and Kevin Cronin.

Here is the full statement:

To our fans: Bruce has intended to be Back On the Road Again by now. If it were up to just him, he’d be back on tour… but it's not up to just him. The consensus opinion was that he had not recovered sufficiently to be able to perform at the level the fans have come to expect. Bruce respected that opinion and is grateful that Matt has been around to keep the Wagon rolling through the summer tour. Bruce never had any intention of retiring or walking away from the band, fans, and crew he has loved for almost 50 years.

For Kevin’s part, he too has never had any intention of leaving the band, and the fans and crew mean the world to him, as well.

Due to this complex situation, irreconcilable differences arose between Bruce and Kevin. So, it is with great sadness that we announce REO Speedwagon will cease touring effective January 1, 2025. Neal, Kevin, and Bruce thank their fans for all their years of loyal support and for giving back to the band such wonderful memories that will remain with each of them forever.

The band with hits including “Can't Fight This Feeling,” “Take It On The Run,” and “Keep On Loving You,” have a final scheduled performance in Lexington, Kentucky, at Rupp Arena on Nov. 23rd.

The closest stop to Oklahoma is at First National Bank Arena in Jonesboro, Arkansas, on Nov. 15th.
