Jackson To Retire From Touring?

The King of Pop to retire from touring? The physical strain of touring is likely to keep Michael Jackson from ever touring again, he told USA Today.

"Physically touring takes a lot out of you," said Jackson. "When I'm on stage, it's like a two-hour marathon. Sweat is all over the stage. Then you get to your hotel and your adrenaline is at its zenith and you can't fall asleep."

Jackson, who hasn't toured since 1997, said he wanted to concentrate on other areas of his career.
