CHICAGO (WGN) — The band Aerosmith has announced that it is rescheduling several stops on its farewell tour after an injury in the group.
The band made the announcement in a statement shared on its website on Monday.
According to the statement, lead singer Steven Tyler suffered vocal cord damage during a concert on Saturday, which has forced the group to postpone several upcoming tour stops.
“I’m heartbroken to say I have received strict doctor’s orders not to sing for the next thirty days. I sustained vocal cord damage during Saturday’s show that led to subsequent bleeding. We’ll need to postpone a few dates so that we can come back and give you the performance you deserve,” Tyler said in a statement.
