:eek:
From U2.com:
Bono has today undergone emergency back surgery for an injury sustained during tour preparation training. He was admitted to a specialist neuro surgery unit in a Munich hospital, and is under the care of neuro surgeon Prof. Dr. Jorg Tonn and Dr Muller Wohlfahrt. Bono will spend the next few days there, before returning home to recuperate.Once his condition has been assessed further, a statement will be made regarding the impact on forthcoming tour dates.
The Salt Lake City gig has been postponed and maybe it will be the same for the other gigs in june:
Following Bono's unexpected back surgery earlier today, Live Nation confirmed that the U2 U2360° tour launch previously scheduled for June 3rd in Salt Lake City has been postponed.
U2 fans with tickets to the June 3rd event are encouraged to retain tickets until updated show information can be provided.
Additional tour information will be forthcoming.
I just wish the best for Bono's health :(
BONO GET WELL SOON! :smth049 :smth056
When I first came to this thread, my first thought was "Oh no, he's going to be a vegetable now." :?
I wasn't thinking about his back! :!:
Yeah, I hope he's okay. The back is nothing to mess around with! They have a pretty full schedule in the coming months. Shows can always be rescheduled.
huh, back injuries can be nasty :? any news? (i don't read u2 forums/news)
