Sir Rod Stewart, 80, has sent fans into a frenzy of pleas following another huge announcement for his “One Last Time” global tour.
Beginning in March, Stewart will travel across the US, Europe and South America, with his first stop being Austin, Texas.
Late November last year, Stewart announced that “this will be the end of large-scale world tours for me. But I have no desire to retire.”
He continued: “I love what I do, and I do what I love. I'm fit, have a full head of hair, and can run 100 meters in 18 seconds at the jolly old age of 79."
In the statement, Maggie May hitmaker mulled over the possibility of seeking out “smaller venues and more intimacy” for future performances.
“But then again, I may not,” he wrote cryptically, signing off as the “ambiguous Sir Rod Stewart".

South American fans were overjoyed with the news, declaring underneath the Instagram announcement that it was a “great day” and “we love you here very much!”
Another wrote: “I'll be there. It's a dream for me to see you. I love you!”
“I’m seeing you again! A dream come true, waiting for you. October come quickly!!!” a third commented excitedly.
However, not every fan was quite so enthusiastic as others expressed their despair that no dates had been announced in their own countries.
Stewart’s announcement posts were flooded with calls for the iconic rocker to visit other Latin American countries like Brazil and Peru.
“Brazil, please,” one user begged while another asked desperately: “What about Brazil?!!”
“AND PERU????” a third demanded expectantly while another wrote: “Come to Peru." (sic)
