Huey Lewis and the News’ album Sports is one of the greatest full albums of all time. That is why almost 35 years after it came out people still love to see them live. Sadly today,
Huey Lewis announced that he has no choice but to cancel all of the band’s future dates.
Two and a half months ago, after a concert in Dallas, the 67-year-old lost his hearing. To this day, it has not come back, and doctors said that he should cancel his tour. The singer has been to some of the best doctors in the country and they still do not know what is wrong with him. They think he might have Ménière’s disease and according to the Mayo Clinic, most people have permanent hearing loss.
While he cannot hear his music, thus why he cancelled the shows, he can still hear one-on-one conversations and people on the phone. Hopefully, he will be one the few people who regains his hearing because after all the heart of rock’n’roll is still beating with him!
He proved to us that is hip to be square. Hopefully, with a new drug, he will be back to doing what he loves to do. That is making his fans happy as he sings the songs that make him happy.
Let’s pray to the Rock Gds that he will be back to rocking out before we all know it.
