Bruce Springsteen must cancel all upcoming concerts

A few weeks ago, Bruce Springsteen had to give his fans some bad news. The musician canceled the eight concerts planned for September with his E Street Band in the US. The reason: health problems. The 74-year-old said he was being treated for stomach ulcers and had to take a break on the advice of his doctors.

However, this does not seem to have been enough to get fit again. Because Bruce Springsteen is now postponing all remaining concerts of the year, as he announced on Instagram on Wednesday.

The musician has been “continuously recovering from his illness in recent weeks,” but “out of an abundance of caution, all remaining 2023 tour dates for Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will be postponed to 2024,” the statement said.

The rock star himself is optimistic: “I’m on the mend and can’t wait to see you all next year,” he told his fans, thanking them for “their good wishes, encouragement and support.”

The rescheduled dates for the canceled shows will be announced next week and will all take place at the originally planned locations. All tickets remain valid for the newly announced concerts. If that doesn’t work, you’ll get your money back, they say.

Bruce Springsteen and his E Street Band have already performed in Europe this year. Their tour started in Barcelona at the end of April. Springsteen is one of the most successful musicians of our time and has been on stage for decades. His best-known hits include ‘Streets of Philadelphia’ and ‘Born In The USA’ (t-online/dpa)
