Bruce Springsteen, 74, was in the middle of his world tour but then put the breaks on it in early September. That is because the singer is suffering from symptoms of peptic ulcer disease, and his doctors told him to take the month off.
Today, his people gave an update on when he will restart his tour, and doctors advised him to take the rest of 2023 off as he steadily recovers.
Springsteen has a message for his fans, “Thanks to all my friends and fans for your good wishes, encouragement, and support. I’m on the mend and can’t wait to see you all next year.”
The new dates are expected to be announced next week.
Before Bruce Springsteen was selling out stadiums all over the world, he was playing a Columbia Records showcase at the Ahmanson Theater in Los Angeles. Even at the tender age of 23, he knew how to command the stage and wow the audience during that 1973 performance.
Bruce Springsteen postponed some of his August dates because he wasn’t feeling well. And now, we know what is ailing him.
The singer, 73, announced today that he is postponing his eight September dates with the E Street Band because he is suffering from peptic ulcer disease. His doctors advised him to take the month off and undergo treatment.
“Over here on E Street, we’re heartbroken to have to postpone these shows,” he wrote. “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.”
Bruce Springsteen was singing Ghosts in Amsterdam the other day, and the audience turned white as ghosts when he fell face down going up some stairs.
But the 73-year-old can take a licking and keep on kicking ass! So with the help of some roadies, he got up and kept on Rockin’. Because they don’t make Rockers like him anymore!
Have you ever wondered who inspired Alfonso Ribeiro to dance the way he did on The Fresh of Bel-Air? Was it Belinda Carlisle from The Go-Go’s as she assumed? Nope. It was actually the way Bruce Springsteen and Courteney Cox danced in Dancing in the Dark.
So, yesterday when the Boss was on The Tonight Show, Jimmy Fallon wanted to know what he thought of that. He laughed and said, “Well. My dancing is pretty embarrassing. And my kids kill me on that. ‘Dad, you look ridiculous. Ridiculous.’ It is my New Jersey Shuffle. I guess. It is all I knew.”
And then Springsteen said he saw the resemblance as we all do now. And we won’t be able to unsee it.
