Bruce Springsteen announced Wednesday that he was postponing all concerts he had scheduled in September to recover from a peptic ulcer. The singer posted a statement on social media explaining that he is simply complying with his doctor's orders and that he would return with the tour he is doing with The E Street Band in November:
Over here on E Street, we’re heartbroken to have to postpone these shows. First, apologies to our fabulous Philly fans who we missed a few weeks ago. We’ll be back to pick these shows up and then some. Thank you for your understanding and support. We’ve been having a blast at our US shows and we’re looking forward to more great times. We’ll be back soon. Love and God bless all, Bruce
