Gene Simmons postpones dates on upcoming solo tour, fans assured it is not health related
Gene Simmons has quietly postponed 17 dates on his upcoming solo tour, with his team assuring fans the cancellation was not down to his health.The bassist and singer was set to head out on the road in the US with The Gene Simmons Band in April and May, with the tour intended to kick off at the Graton Resort & Casino in Rohnert Park, California on April 5.While preparing to hit the road again, the veteran rocker launched a handful of Experiences for fans to purchase ahead of the spring shows, with one dubbed ‘The Ultimate Gene Simmons Experience’ – which gives a fan the opportunity to help with load-in at the venue, stage set-up, and the ability to sit in on the sound check and hang out backstage.For a steep $12,495 (£9,667) in addition to the original ticket price, Simmons would also join the fan turned-roadie for a meal and introduce them during the show.However, in a recent statement given by Christina Vitaglano, who runs Simmons’ backstage VIP fan experience packages, it was revealed the April dates as well as the Texas leg of the May dates have all been postponed “until early 2026.”No reason has yet been given for cancelling more than half of the shows, but it is said not to be linked to his health in any way, per Louder Sound.While the cancelled shows are being described as postponed at present, tickets are being refunded and any of the roadie experience tickets sold for the affected shows can either be refunded or switched to any of the remaining available dates.

Eagles guitarist Steuart Smith shares health update and that he “must bow out” of the band
Eagles guitarist Steuart Smith has shared a health update with fans and announced that he will be leaving the group.The guitarist has been a part of the American rock group since 2001, and shared a statement confirming that a recent health diagnosis has left him unable to continue as part of the line-up.Shared with American Songwriter and Ultimate Classic Rock, the statement from Smith read: “It is with profound regret that, due to performance issues associated with my recently diagnosed Parkinsonism, I find that I must bow out of my role with the Eagles while I can still do so gracefully.”He continued: “It’s been a great quarter of a century, and I had hoped to be able to finish out this year with the band, but I must now do what’s best for all concerned.”According to the Parkinson’s Foundation, the term Parkinsonism is “used to describe a collection of movement symptoms associated with several conditions — including Parkinson’s disease”.The statement also included contributions from the band’s founding member Don Henley, who paid his respects to Smith and recalled the impact that he had on the group. “The Eagles will be forever grateful for the extraordinary talents that he brought to both our recordings and live performances,” he wrote.“Steuart will be greatly missed, but he will always be a part of our musical family.
