Iconic rock singer forced to reschedule tour after suffering painful injury as fans left devastated and concerned
AN ICONIC rock singer has been forced to reschedule their tour after enduring a painful injury. Stevie Nicks, 77, has shared with her fans how due to a recent injury, she will need time to recover before taking to the stage again. 5 Stevie Nicks has fractured her shoulder and has been forced to reschedule her tour Credit: Getty 5 She will be back on stage in October once she has recovered Credit: Getty 5 She has expressed her sadness for being forced to cancel the summer shows Credit: Getty The Fleetwood Mac icon fractured her shoulder and will need to recover throughout the summer and early fall. Her August and September tour dates will soon be rescheduled, with her October tour dates remaining unchanged. A statement was shared on Stevie's Instagram page. The message read, "Due to a recent injury resulting in a fractured shoulder that will require recovery time, Stevie Nicks' scheduled concerts in August and September will be rescheduled. Read More about Singers "Please note that October dates will be unaffected. "Stevie looks forward to seeing everyone soon and apologizes to the fans for this inconvenience." Stevie was originally set to kick off her tour in August. The earliest fans can hope to see the iconic rocker in concert after her shoulder injury will be in the autumn. Most read in Celebrity She is due to perform on October 1 in Portland, Oregon. Some fans, who were due to see her perform at the now-rescheduled shows, have expressed their upset under the post. Fleetwood Mac fans are convinced Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham are 'getting back together' after spotting 'clues' "NOOOOOOOOO I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE NEXT WEEK," said one. "I was so excited to go for my birthday. Wishing you a speedy recovery all the same," added another. But most of the comments underneath the post were wishing Stevie well and begging for her speedy recovery. "Heal quickly and safely goddess," penned one. "Get well soon! We will all be waiting on you," added another. "DONT TAKE UNNECESSARY RISKS STEVIE," demanded a third. While a third joked, "Someone was supposed to bubble wrap her!!" The news of Stevie's injury comes after the news of her out-of-print album Buckingham Nicks would soon be reissued. The album was a collaborative LP with her then-lover Lindsey Buckingham. The project preceded the musicians joining a revamped Fleetwood Mac lineup. The announcement of the reissuing of the LP came after Stevie posted a picture with her cursive handwriting that said 'And if you go forward…' Then, just 30 minutes later, Lindsey shared a post of his own that completed the lyric, which read: '… I'll meet you there.' Lindsey and Stevie began dating in the late 1960s and went on to form the musical duo, Buckingham Nicks, shortly after. They joined Fleetwood Mac in 1974 and found instant success with the band - catapulting all five members, including Mick, John McVie, and Christine McVie, into worldwide sensations. Although they were at the height of their careers and continued to have to work together in the same band, Stevie and Lindsey officially broke up in 1976. 5 Buckingham Nicks will be reissued this September Credit: AP 5 Stevie and Lindsey were romantically linked in their early careers Credit: AP
