Bruce Springsteen postpones remaining tour dates due to peptic ulcer disease

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band have postponed the rest of their 2023 performances as the singer continues to recover from an illness.

The announcement was made in a statement released Wednesday.

The statement says Springsteen has continued to recover after being treated for symptoms of peptic ulcer disease earlier this month, and that medical advisors told him that he should postpone the remainder of his 2023 tour dates.

“With this in mind, and out of an abundance of caution, all remaining 2023 tour dates for Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band will be postponed until 2024,” Springsteen said in a statement. “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.”

Earlier this month, ‘The Boss’ announced the postponement of all September shows, including dates in Syracuse, New York, Uncasville, Connecticut, and Albany.

Peptic ulcers are open sores that develop on the inside lining of your stomach and the upper portion of your small intestine. The most common symptom of a peptic ulcer is stomach pain.
