Bruce Springsteen, the iconic rock star, has had to make a tough decision. He recently announced that he’s postponing all his concerts scheduled for September 2023 due to health concerns. In a heartfelt message shared on social media, he expressed his regret and gratitude to his fans.
“On E Street, we’re truly saddened to have to delay these upcoming shows,” Bruce Springsteen conveyed in his statement. He first apologized to his devoted Philly fans, who missed out on a performance a few weeks back. Bruce assured them that he’ll be back to make up for it, promising even more memorable shows. He thanked everyone for their understanding and unwavering support, emphasizing the incredible times they’ve been having during the U.S. tour.
Bruce Springsteen has been on the road since February 1st, 2023, starting his journey in Tampa, Florida, and then taking his music across the ocean to Europe before returning to the United States. He’s been working tirelessly, rarely taking any significant breaks. However, in March, he had to reschedule a few shows due to an undisclosed illness.
Prior to the September postponement, Bruce had to cancel two shows in August, with one cancellation happening just hours before the performance. Back then, he simply mentioned he was dealing with an unspecified illness, leaving fans concerned.
Now, Bruce Springsteen has shed light on his health condition, revealing that he’s grappling with symptoms of peptic ulcer disease (PUD). Peptic ulcers typically form inside the stomach or small intestines, causing discomfort and pain, as described by the Mayo Clinic.
