Eric wurde scheinbar beim zweiten Konzert in der RAH vom Covid Virus infisziert …
Ein Verschiebungsdatum wird baldmöglichst kommuniziert.
Wäre zu schön gewesen, wenn‘s morgen endlich geklappt hätte.
Das Full Statement:
Eric Clapton is unfortunately suffering from Covid having tested (and still testing) positive shortly after the second concert at the Royal Albert Hall. He has been told by his medical advisors that if he were to resume travelling and performing too soon, it could substantially delay his full recovery. Eric is also anxious to avoid passing on any infection to any of his band, crew, Promoters, their staff and of course the fans.
So, after intensive internal discussion, it has been decided with great regret and apologies to all those concerned to postpone the performances in Zurich on 17th May and Milan on 18th May, the present hope being to be able to resume the tour starting with the concerts in Bologna on 20th and 21st May.
It is very frustrating that having avoided Covid throughout lockdown and throughout the period when travel restrictions have been in place Eric should have succumbed to Covid at this point in time, but we very much hope he will be sufficiently recovered by the end of the week to be able to perform the remainder of the planned performances. A further announcement will be made concerning the rescheduling of the postposed shows once suitable dates can be identified. We are intending to reschedule these shows sometime later this year.”
