Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band have announced they have postponed all of their September performances as Springsteen is being treated for symptoms of peptic ulcer disease.
According to a message shared Wednesday on Springsteen's website and his official Instagram account, the postponement of the September shows is "the decision of his medical advisors."
“Over here on E Street we’re heartbroken to have to postpone these shows,” read a comment from Springsteen included in the statement.
His comment continued, "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 U.S. shows and we’re looking forward to more great times. We’ll be back soon."
