Bruce Springsteen had fans worried when peptic ulcer disease treatment forced him to cancel concerts back in September. Now, fans have new concerns as “The Boss” has paused his tour with the E Street Band once again for new medical issues.
The rock music icon first raised alarms with a single concert cancellation on Friday. Springsteen was dealing with “vocal issues” and received medical advice to postpone his concert at Orange Vélodrome in Marseille, France. As of press time, a yet-to-be-announced new date has been promised and previously purchased tickets will be honored.
However, Springsteen’s team soon announced more cancellations on Saturday: “Following yesterday’s postponement in Marseille due to vocal issues, further examination and consulting has led doctors to determine that Bruce should not perform for the next ten days.”
His reps also assured fans that the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer is “recuperating comfortably.”
This ten-day respite means that his concerts at Airport Letnany in Prague, Czech Republic (May 28) and San Siro Stadium in Milan, Italy (June 1 and 3) are postponed. Make-up dates have yet to surface.
The “Born in the USA” and “Dancing in the Dark” singer-songwriter, who also recently lost his mother, will return to touring with his June 12 show in Madrid, Spain.
