Glen Campbell is to say goodbye to his Irish fans with his last ever concerts. He was recently diagnosed with the early stages of Alzheimer's Disease. It basically affects his short term memory. Glen is still able to sing, play and perform in the same professional manner that he always has. He will be doing the same top notch show that his fans have come to expect. Glen will also be available to do interviews to promote the tour as he has done in the past.
