'Just so sad': US rock band postpone tour dates ahead of Glasgow show (Image: Newsquest)
An American band has postponed some of their tour dates while one member undergoes surgery.
Blink 182 were set to begin their huge reunion tour later this month in South America, but due to a 'freak accident', drummer Travis Barker requires an operation on his finger.
Lead singer Tom DeLonge announced the 'devastating' news in an Instagram reel and promised South American audiences that they will return in 2024.
He said: "Travis needs to go in and have surgery on his finger, and we have to get that well, and we have to get that strong before we can do anything else.
"This is just so sad."
It appears that the Glasgow dates on September 1 and 2, 2023 are still going ahead.
