“He has been to doctors and has received treatment. However, so far his vocal cords have not recovered. This is brutal news and a horrible time…for everyone involved.”
Also, the Pearl Jam concert that was scheduled for this Sunday at the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam was canceled a few hours before the show began. Frontman Eddie Vedder has yet to recover from vocal problems, concert organizer MOJO announced. “Despite ongoing medical treatment, sadly Ed still has no voice and is unable to perform at tonight’s show at Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam,” the band said. Pearl Jam’s second show, which is scheduled for Monday, has not been canceled yet.
pearl jam performed at the weekend music festival lollapalooza paris in a context of a heat wave with peaks well above 40 degrees Celsius in southern Europe.
Firefighters in southwestern France have been battling since July 12 to contain the massive blazes, at a time when the UK recorded the highest local temperature on record on Tuesday.
“Those who work so hard to put on the shows, as well as those who give their precious time and energy to attend… As a band, we are deeply sorry and have tried to find options to continue playing,” Pearl Jam said.
“And Ed wants to play. There’s just no throat available right now (…) So we feel very, very deeply.”
The band said the tickets would be refunded. Wednesday’s concert in Vienna was part of Pearl Jam’s European tour.
