Nickelback Cancels Summer Tour

Sorry, Nickelback fans that were planning on catching a show this summer. Chad Kroeger was diagnosed with a cyst on his voice box, and he’ll have to have surgery.

In all, they scrapped more than 40 shows between now and the first week of September. Refunds will be available at the point of purchase.

Chad says, quote, “I’m sorry I have to interrupt the party this summer and I’m definitely not thrilled with the prospect of being silent for many weeks to come when I could be out there playing for our fans.

“I’m relying on my doctor and his team to help get my voice back in good form as quickly as possible.” He’s expected to make a full recovery . . . unfortunately.

Check out this video of Mike Kroeger and Ryan Peake talking about the tour being cancelled:
