George Michael plans 'Final Two' gigs

George Michael is planning to retire from touring after two final London shows in August.

The dates have been dubbed The Final Two, a reference to the Wembley Stadium gig called The Final which ended Wham!

The shows, the last in Michael's two-year 25 Live Tour, will be at Earls Court on August 24 and 25.

A statement on his website said: "These very special shows will naturally feature Michael's hits, some tracks not previously performed in Britain, and a stunning new stage set. These shows are truly not to be missed by any George Michael fan."

Although he may return for one-offs, the shows will mark an end to touring for the singer, reports the BBC.
