Despite hopes that singer Simon Le Bon’s voice would be fully recovered by now, Duran Duran have been forced to postpone their upcoming concert dates once again on doctor’s advice. New replacement dates will be announced shortly.
Duran Duran were due to start a world tour in support of their latest studio album, ALL YOU NEED IS NOW, in early May, but have had to postpone all of the concerts so far following Simon Le Bon’s vocal problems, which were diagnosed just days before the first dates of the tour. Doctors are confident that Le Bon’s voice will be back to full strength shortly, but don’t want him to embark on concerts until he is 100% recovered.
The following concerts are postponed:
Paris Grand Rex, June 10
Den Haag ADO Kyocera Stadion, June 11
Brussel Vorst Nationaal, June 12
Kopenhagen Tivoli, June 14
Stockholm Cirkus, June 16
