Age may be one thing but health wise Brian is not really a well man, he suffered that prostate scare 3 to 4 years ago and his knee operation a while back, and so with that in mind he should really stop been greedy with touring a chill out.
i've removed your comment about Lambert from my reply - as it's not relevant as to whether or not Brian is healthy enough to tour.
Artists have to have insurance to take on a tour - this covers things like compensation for sponsors etc if the tour is cancelled.
To get such insurance, artists have to have medicals. Brian and Roger will have passed their medicals - being declared fit to tour. and, 180 gigs over 7 years (25 per year) while traveling and staying in luxury is not that arduous.
A "prostate scare" doesn't equate to actually being ill. a scare is a scare, touring won't increase the likelihood of another prostate scare, will it? and it certainly won't increase the likelihood of an actual illness.
In fact, it's been medically proven that staying fit and active into old age can help to lower your risk of developing - or help you manage -
>> coronary heart disease
>> stroke
>> Type 2 diabetes
>> some types of cancer
>> obesity
>> arthritis.
It can also reduce the risk of depression, dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.
so if it's his health you're worried about (which it clearly isn't), then there's no need to.
truth is, like every discussion, (for you and one or two others) it's really about nothing more than Adam Lambert. You'd be less false if you dropped the pretence and didn't bother typing all that stuff about his health.
