"We are working on rescheduling the dates so please hold on to your tickets as they will be valid for the rescheduled shows," the statement reads. Fans were devastated by the news, with one X user saying that he flew all the way to Pennsylvania to see the show. "Feel better soon Boss," one person wrote. Another said: "Get well, see you down the road." The cancellation came after Springsteen rescheduled another show in Ohio due to an illness in March. It's unclear what sickness has plagued Springsteen, or if the two incidents are related.

Throughout a career spanning six decades, Springsteen has earned 20 Grammy Awards, an Academy Award, and two Golden Globes. He's been indicted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He also was granted a special Tony after a Broadway show based on his life debuted. At the end of May, the Boss shocked fans in Amsterdam when he took a hard fall while getting on the stage. He tripped while walking upstairs and fell to the floor before rolling onto his back. The E Street Band jumped into action, grabbing his guitar and helping him back on his feet. But Springsteen was able to recover and walked up to the microphone to jokingly yell "Goodnight, everybody," even though the show had just started. The rest of the show went on without a hitch. Last year, Springsteen appeared on SiriusXM's The Howard Stern Show, and told the host that he doesn't plan on retiring soon. "I can't imagine [retiring], you know?" he said at the time. "I mean, if I got to a place where I was incapacitated or something but up until then I think I'm… I mean, look at Johnny Cash, Pete Seeger." Both of the artists the Boss referenced went on to perform well into their 80s. "I look at those guys and go, 'Yeah, I don't know if I'll [always] be doing three-hour shows, but I have so many different kinds of music that I can play and do,'" he said.
