Bruce Springsteen, who was celebrating last Saturday as he turned 74, has announced on his social networks that he has been forced to postpone the rest of his tour until 2024 "to continue with his treatment" after being diagnosed with a peptic ulcer. .
In a statement online, Springsteen has reported that he has to continue with his treatment "for the remainder of the year", following the instructions of his doctors, and that the concerts scheduled for November and December in Canada and the United States will be held in 2024. .
This announcement by the Boss, who was immersed in a tour that began last February in Tampa and with which he visited Barcelona with two massive concerts at the Estadi Olímpic, joins the one he already published on September 7, when he reported that had to postpone all concerts scheduled for this September after presenting "symptoms of a peptic ulcer" and receiving medical treatment.
Thus, with this new writing, Springsteen confirms that he suffers from "this disease" - an open sore or raw area in the lining of the stomach or intestine - and that he will continue with his tour in 2024. "When the new dates, those who cannot attend and have purchased their tickets will have 30 days to request a refund," he says. "All tickets for postponed performances will remain valid for the newly announced dates," he concludes.
In fact, Springsteen already has some concerts scheduled for August 2024. These are the two that he had to offer last August in Philadelphia but that he had to postpone at the last minute due to health problems - some media spoke of covid, a disease that has already contracted in the days before his two concerts in Barcelona - although he reappeared a week later with two concerts in Foxborough.
The good news for Springsteen fans is that the announcement of the new dates of his concerts in the US for 2024 could coincide with that of a new European tour, which would include several concerts in Spain. At the moment there is nothing official and everything is rumors, but according to portals close to the artist's environment, the Boss would have up to five concerts scheduled in Spain in June next year: two in Madrid, one in Donosti and another two in Barcelona.
“Thank you to all my friends and fans for your good wishes, encouragement and support. "I'm recovering and I can't wait to see you all next year," Springsteen said at the end of the statement, and after this new writing, there have been many who have wished the Boss a good recovery.
