LONDON, Jan. 13 (UPI) -- A long-term collaborator of David Bowie's says the British rock superstar does not plan any live performances to promote his upcoming album.

In an interview with NME magazine, producer Tony Visconti said Bowie is insistent there won't be any future live shows.

"He's fairly adamant he's never gonna perform live again. ... One of the guys would say, 'Boy, how are we gonna do all this live?' and David said, 'We're not'. He made a point of saying that all the time," Visconti said.

Bowie's upcoming album, titled "The Next Day," is set to hit stores in March. Bowie announced the album on his 66th birthday.
