Much to the chagrin of many, Imagine Dragons today announced that its Mercury World Tour in Latin America, which is due to begin in Bogotá, Colombia, this October 18 and with To show on October 21 in Santiago, Chile, is postponed for health reasons of its singer Dan Reynolds.
Due to health issues, the band had to postpone their To show in Colombia and also said that all their dates scheduled for Latin America will be postponed. “In our 12 years as a band, we have never canceled a tower (and we can count the number of shows with one hand).
From their official Twitter account, they wrote a heartfelt message “for all their friends in Latin America” which read: “We are so sorry to share that we have to postpone our shows in Latin America. In our twelve years as a band, we’ve never had to cancel a tour (and we could count the number of shows with one hand). We hope you know how difficult it is for us to reschedule these dates, and we plan to make up for them soon.”
“Some of you know that Dan has been suffering from bleeding vocal cords and a nodule since the last leg of the tour, and your doctor has warned you that going out right now could cause a rupture and permanently damage your voice. Unexpectedly, he is now also struggling with a fairly serious lateral knee ligament sprain that will require splinting and rehabilitation for some time. At this time, we cannot give you the show you expect and deserve,” the band announced.
“We will keep everyone informed of the new dates, and we are very sorry for those who have planned to travel. or another guy to see us. Those unable to attend the new dates will receive a refund,” he added.
Remember that the group had announced the dates of their Mercury World Tour across Latin America and which the tour, produced by Live Nation, also celebrates the release of their recent double album, Mercury — Acts 1 & 2 which will lead them to their To show live in countries in the region such as Brazil, Argentina and, of course, Colombia.
Among the songs included in this new Imagine Dragons album are the hits Enemy, Bones and Sharks, which are currently on the international charts and with great results on digital platforms and millions of views of their videos on YouTube.
the tower for South America opened at the Live Coliseum in Bogotá on October 18.
The international tour started in February in the United States, after being in Europe performing in Prague, Vienna, United Kingdom, he was also in Canada. Additionally, the band had announced that they would have two more dates for their South African tour.
These Grammy-winning and multi-platinum music greats continue to establish themselves as one of the best-selling rock bands in the world. They have 49 million albums and 55 million songs sold, plus 75 billion combined streams.
Now, for the time being, his fans will have to wait with their tickets until a new date and for travelers who only flew for the concert, they will have to postpone their stays until further notice.
