REO Speedwagon to Stop Touring Due to Internal Conflicts

The band cites 'irreconcilable differences' between frontman Kevin Cronin and bassist Bruce Hall as the reason for their decision.

REO Speedwagon will cease touring effective January 1, 2025, after nearly 60 years of performances.
The decision follows a period of tension between Kevin Cronin and Bruce Hall, exacerbated by Hall's recovery from back surgery.
Despite Hall's readiness to return, the band concluded he had not recovered sufficiently to meet performance standards.
Cronin has also been dealing with his own health issues, including a recent emergency surgery.
The band expressed gratitude to their fans for their years of support and memorable experiences.
