"Hello, my friends," Paul Simon exhorted on Friday night at the TD Garden, immediately after leading a spirited run-through of his 1975 cad's guide to life "50 Ways to Leave Your Lover." It was an appropriate way for Simon to greet those who were in attendance for his last Boston show; earlier this year, the 76-year-old folk-pop legend announced that 2018 would be given over to his final tour, and Simon took the opportunity to muse on the meaning of "final" during his greeting, letting the crowd know that he'd still be writing and recording music while also noting that his future lack of tour commitments "opens up a whole host of possibilities."
