Sting Cancels Shows Due to Illness
Sting has announced the cancellation of several shows this week due to illness – details below.
The Police frontman took to social media last night to share a statement announcing he was canceling his awards show appearance and postponing several headlining dates “on the advice of his doctor.”
The statement reads: “Due to illness, it is with sincere regret that Sting must cancel his performance at the Bass Magazine Awards this Thursday and reschedule his STING 3.0 shows in Phoenix, Arizona (originally scheduled for January 24th) to June 1st, and in Wheatland, California (originally scheduled for January 26) through May 28.”
In addition, Sting’s performance at the Cherrytree Music Company’s 20th anniversary celebration was rescheduled to May 29. As such, Sting urged his fans in Phoenix and Wheatland to hold on to their purchased tickets for the rescheduled dates, as their existing tickets will be valid for the new dates.
The statement ends with: “Sting sincerely apologizes for any inconvenience caused and thanks fans for their understanding.”
