Bruce Springsteen Concerts Postponed Due to Peptic Ulcer Disease

Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band have postponed their September tour due to Springsteen's health struggle with peptic ulcer disease.

Bruce Springsteen, also known as The Boss, delivered some unfortunate news to his fans on Wednesday. Despite his fame and influence, even he cannot control the hand that fate deals. The renowned artist, famous for hits like "Born in the U.S.A.," is currently on the Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band's 2023 World Tour. However, due to health struggles, he has been forced to postpone the remaining September tour stops.

In a statement posted on the band's Twitter account, it was announced that all performances scheduled for September 2023, including the upcoming show at the JMA Wireless Dome in Syracuse, N.Y., have been postponed. The reason behind this decision is Bruce Springsteen's ongoing treatment for symptoms of peptic ulcer disease, as advised by his medical team.

Expressing his disappointment, the 73-year-old rock icon shared his feelings with his fans. He apologized to the Philadelphia fans who were left disappointed a few weeks ago and assured them that the shows would be rescheduled. He thanked everyone for their understanding and support, emphasizing the joy he has experienced during the U.S. shows and expressing his excitement for more great times in the future.

This unfortunate news follows an incident that occurred just over three months ago. During a concert in Amsterdam, Springsteen took a hard fall on stage while performing the 2020 track "Ghosts" from his album "Letter to You." In a video that circulated on social media, Springsteen can be seen using his left hand to break his fall while still holding onto the microphone. Fortunately, he managed to protect the guitar he held in his right hand. After a brief moment to recover, he bravely returned to finish the show with the help of his band members and crew.

It is clear that Bruce Springsteen's health is a top priority, and his decision to postpone the September shows is a testament to that. While his fans may be disappointed, it is important to support his well-being and wish him a speedy recovery. The resilience and determination displayed by Springsteen are a true testament to his dedication to his craft and his fans. We can only hope for his swift return to the stage, where he will undoubtedly continue to captivate audiences with his iconic music and unforgettable performances.
