Previously, Jagger announced that the Rolling Stones would have to postpone some tour dates, but he did not allude as to why.
“I’m so sorry to all our fans in America & Canada with tickets. I really hate letting you down like this.
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. Once again, huge apologies to everyone,” he tweeted on March 30.
