Actually, he could choose to retire in 2029, as well. That would coincide with the the 60th jubilee of The Woodstock Festival. So I go by him retiring either next year or in ī27 or ī29.

The older he gets the more relevant the question about him retiring becomes.
A couple of years ago he fainted on stage and currently he has cancalled shows due to an accidental fall.
He isnīt immortal. Time waits for no one, the title of an unreleased Santana song from around 1975.
So I take a shot at predicting a stop from touring in either 2026 or 2027.
2026 would coincide with the 60th birthday of Santana as a group. 2027 will see Carlos turn 80. Maybe itīs time to call it a day by then?
Anyway, although Iīm European, his last concert ought to be in San Francisco, where it all started.
If so, I will do anything to get a ticket for such an one-off event.
