Paul Simon
Cancels Multiple Shows Due to Back Pain
Published
Paul Simon fans in Philadelphia are hearing the “Sound of Silence” instead of his voice this weekend … because he’s had to cancel two performances.
A post was shared to the singer-songwriter’s Instagram Saturday … letting fans know “chronic and intense back pain” required immediate attention — and, he can’t play his shows this weekend.
The statement explains the shows will have to be canceled for now … because PS simply doesn’t have the ability to reschedule them for a later date at this time.
Paul’s going through minor surgery for the issue … but, his next show is scheduled for July 7 in Long Beach — though it’s unclear if he will make that show either.
He’s got more concerts set up for Los Angeles, San Francisco and Vancouver into early August … so, he has quite a bit of time to recover before his tour comes to an end.
Simon is 83 years old … so any medical issue he has will certainly alarm fans — but, it sounds like this one isn’t too serious.
