Thurston Moore has announced the unfortunate cancellation of his US book tour due to a “debilitating” health condition.The Sonic Youth guitarist and vocalist took to social media last night (October 10) to announce the cancellation, which was meant to promote his upcoming memoir, Sonic Life.
The book tour was scheduled to run from October 24 in Jersey City until November 4 in San Francisco.Moore wrote: “It utterly bereaves me to pass on the news that I have been advised by my medical team here in the UK to cancel my upcoming USA book tour.
For years I have been dealing with a longstanding health condition, though it has never seriously stopped me from touring and recording.”“Regardless it’s always been an underlying issue and as I reach my mid-60s this year it has become rather, and consistently, debilitating.
After a recent consultation, my doctors have strongly advised against me flying anywhere under any circumstance until they get it all sorted out,” Thurston Moore continued.
