''I am relying on my doctor and his team''.
Chad Kroeger i Nickelback tvingas till vila och operation. Detta efter att hans läkare har upptäckt en cysta på sångarens stämband. Nu ställer bandet in den resterande sommarturnén på 42 datum.
På bandets hemsida står följande:
"Nickelback is forced to cancel all remaining dates of the second leg of the 2015 No Fixed Address North American tour due to lead vocalist Chad Kroeger being diagnosed with an operable cyst on his voice box. Chad will undergo surgery in 3 weeks following vocal rest ordered by doctors. Ticket refunds will be available at the point of purchase.
Nickelback cancelled shows over the weekend, hoping the additional rest and treatment would help but an unfortunate diagnosis from Chad's doctor revealed a more serious scenario. "I am sorry I have to interrupt the party this summer and I am definitely not thrilled with the prospect of being silent for many weeks to come when I could be out there playing for our fans" shared Chad. "I am relying on my doctor and his team to help get my voice back in good form as quickly as possible."
Chad's medical team anticipates a full recovery and the No Fixed Address Tour will resume with their previously scheduled European run, in Helsinki, Finland on September 30th. Nickelback are expected to return to North America in 2016."
Nickelback är sedan tidigare klara för Globen, där de visar upp sig 2 oktober. Går allting enligt planerna bör inte bandets svenska fans drabbas av den här olyckliga historien.
