According to a statement shared by Tyler, he suffered “subsequent bleeding” after sustaining an injury to his vocal chords during last Saturday’s show. After seeing a doctor, the 75-year-old has been placed on strict vocal rest for 30 days.
“I’m heartbroken to say I have received strict doctor’s orders not to sing for the next thirty days,” Tyler shared with fans in a statement via social media. “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.”
The injury will affect six shows originally scheduled in the next 30 days. They will all be made up in January and February 2024. See the list of new dates below.
