Eric Clapton is planning to retire from touring after growing tired of fifty years on the road, according to reports.

The 'Crossroads' star said that there were tons of things he did like to do but he was looking at retirement too as he was going to be 70-year-old next year, the Mirror reported.

The Brit musician asserted that according to him he will allow himself to record in the studio and he did not want to go off the boil to the point where he was embarrassing himself.

Whilst talking about his touring on road, Clapton said that was unapproachable, because it took so long to get anywhere and it was hostile.
