The tour started in the winter of 2002 and continued until the fall of the same year. The concerts scheduled for 11 March through 6 April were cancelled and then postponed until the fall of the same year due to Joel's ill health.[3][4][5]
Joel stated in 2012 that he would no longer tour with Elton because it restrains his setlists.[6][7]
