Do Radiohead fans now have to worry about the Berlin concerts? The British band has postponed two of their four planned shows in Copenhagen at short notice. The reason: Singer Thom Yorke is struggling with an “extreme sore throat” that is currently making it “impossible for him to sing”.
The concerts at the Royal Arena scheduled for December 1st and 2nd will be postponed to December 15th and 16th. The tickets for the postponed concerts will automatically be transferred to the new dates. Anyone who needs a refund can request this via the respective advance booking office.
Radiohead postpone concerts: “Devastated…”
“We are devastated to have to postpone these shows at such short notice,” the band said in a statement. At the same time, she is cautiously optimistic: As things stand, the performances on December 4th and 5th should take place as planned.
This changes the band’s tour dramaturgy noticeably, because the Berlin concerts were actually supposed to be the end of the long-awaited European tour. Radiohead play the Uber Arena four times: on December 8th, 9th, 11th and 12th. For fans with tickets for the December 12th This means: You are now experiencing no longer the big tour finale.
Radiohead: The Statement
“We are devastated to have to postpone these two shows at such short notice, but Thom has been diagnosed with extreme strep throat which has left him unable to sing.
Treatment is already underway and we hope that Thom will recover in time to play the two remaining Copenhagen concerts on December 4th and 5th and all four Berlin shows starting December 8th.
We are overwhelmed by the audience’s reaction and love being on stage together again. It goes without saying that we are terribly sorry to have to postpone these shows.”
