The Rolling Stones have cancelled another date on their summer tour, in the German business capital Frankfurt, because of guitarist Keith Richards’s fall from a palm tree.
The veteran British rockers had already called off July shows in the German cities of Nuremberg and Leipzig due to scheduling conflicts when they delayed the European leg of their "A Bigger Bang" tour to allow Richards to recuperate.
They tried to find a new date for the Frankfurt concert, scheduled for July 14, to no avail.
"There was a problem finding free dates at the Frankfurt stadium that worked for the tour," German tour promoter Peter Rieger said in a statement Monday.
Richards, 62, was hospitalized in New Zealand last month with a brain haemhorrage and had to undergo an operation to drain blood from his brain following his plunge from a palm tree on the South Pacific Ocean island of Fiji.
The rescheduled concerts, announced on the band’s website, kick off in Milan on July 11 and will include a gig in Berlin on July 21, two in London on August 20 and 22 and will end in Horsens, Denmark, on September 3.
The shows that remain postponed are in Barcelona, Brussels, Gothenburg, St Petersburg, Brno, Warsaw, Athens and Zagreb.
