Bruce Springsteen has pulled out of his third concert in a week with an unspecified illness forcing him off the road with his band at the expense of an appearance planned Tuesday for Albany.
The postponements come as Springsteen’s first major tour with the E Street Band in six years ends its first month on the road.
AP reports the New Jersey rocker also gave himself and his band sick days last Thursday when they were to have performed in Columbus, Ohio, and again for a scheduled concert Sunday at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut.
The concert tour has already drawn criticism over high ticket prices
Details were lacking in Springsteen’s social media posts which gave no further details on whatever malady is impacting his health or that of his band members.
His Twitter feed simply blamed the latest postponement on illness.
It merely said: “Due to illness, Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band’s concert at MVP Arena in Albany on Tuesday, March 14 has been postponed. We are working on rescheduling the date so please hold on to your tickets as they will be valid for the rescheduled show.”

Saw him once back in 92. Good show but never again.
41 shots
Some of these are from “low ticket sales-itis”. Starts with pains in the promoters’ wallet area.
Probably not true in his case. People shell out a fortune for him and McCartney and Billy Joel and company. Some front rows include meeting with the star backstage. Nice to be rich.
Bruce has suffered from a severe case of Dumbassery for decades.
Clot shots?
Not to mention “Notalentitis”!

“Pro” union, but calls himself “The Boss”
Meh...
Good point.
Station To Station is the best Bowie album.
“...he has always and always will sound like he’s taking a dump while “singing”.”
You got that right.
Stupidity disease
Yup—— Station to Station live here>>>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAj2iX9xqCo
Oh for goodness sakes people, the man is 71 or 72 years old. People get sick and wear out at that age.
His first three albums were quite good. I took my future wife to a small venue show with him and the E Street Band in January of 1977 and it was outstanding.
After LP#3 I didn’t like any of his music and I didn’t like him as he became more and more an assholy political lefty.
But back to my original point. People his age do get sick and have health problems without the assistance of the American doctor Mengele.
“Oh for goodness sakes people, the man is 71 or 72 years old. People get sick and wear out at that age.”
Then Springstooge should disclose what his illness is, after three cancelations. Hopefully he will spare peoples ears, and cancel the rest of tour dates.
Social Justice warrior, liberal Democrat, has spoken out on “price gouging” oil companies. Now under criticism for high priced tickets. Classic. Just another Hypocritical Commie a-hole who’s had 20 boosters and would criticize his audience for not wearing a mask and would also use the stage to voice his vapid opinion on politics.
Never understood the appeal of this no talent liberal bum.
I agree they should give some sort of explanation. Canceling concerts and expecting people who hold the tickets to be able to change their schedule is a little unfair.
I’m guessing they don’t refund the tickets they just tell you you can come to the rescheduled concert or eat the ticket
