The postponement comes just weeks after two concerts in Philadelphia were canceled due to the rocker’s illness.

The 73-year-old legendary singer is being treated for symptoms of peptic ulcer disease, according to a statement released via social media.
His doctors advised him to postpone currently scheduled shows throughout the month of September, beginning with Thursday’s concert in Syracuse, New York.
It’s unclear if the remaining concerts, scheduled throughout November and December, will be performed as planned.
Springsteen commented: “Over here on E Street, we’re heartbroken to have to postpone these shows.
“First, apologies to our fabulous Philly fans who we missed a few weeks ago.
“We’ll be back to pick these shows up and then some. Thank you for your understanding and support.
“We’ve been having a blast at our U.S. shows and we’re looking forward to more great times. We’ll be back soon.”
Springsteen began his nationwide tour earlier this year and recently returned from a European stadium tour.
He canceled shows on August 16 and 18 at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia due to an illness. Those dates have been rescheduled for 2024.
In March, he also rescheduled another show after falling ill.
It’s unclear if the March and August illnesses are related to the peptic ulcer disease symptoms he’s currently being treated for.
Springsteen also tumbled onstage in Amsterdam in May.
He tripped while walking upstairs and fell to the floor before rolling onto his back.
His band members rushed to his side and helped him back to his feet.
Springsteen then carried on with the show without further incident.
Fans have taken to social media to share well wishes for Springsteen.
“Get well soon Bruce. The three shows at MetLife were magic. Thank you for that,” one person wrote.
“73 and still puts on the best show you’ll ever see! Get well soon!” someone else said.
“Get better soon, Bruce!” said another.
“This sure puts my frustration in perspective. Get better soon, Boss. I don’t want to live in a world without, Bruce Springsteen. Take care of yourself & I’ll see you further on up the road,” another fan wrote.
