Stones postpone tour for Jagger treatment

LONDON: The Rolling Stones have postponed a tour of North America to give singer Mick Jagger time to receive medical treatment, the veteran rock band said on Saturday.

The nature of the 75-year-old singer’s medical condition was not disclosed.

“I’m devastated for having to postpone the tour but I will be working very hard to be back on stage as soon as I can,” Jagger said on Twitter.

“I’m so sorry to all our fans in America and Canada with tickets. I really hate letting you down like this.”

The rock star was expected to make a full recovery, the band’s publicist said.

“The doctors have advised Mick that he is expected to make a complete recovery so that he can get back on stage as soon as possible,” the publicist said in a statement, without providing further details.

The tour of the US and Canada had been scheduled to run from April 20 until June 29.
