U.D.O. - To Tour Europe Despite Health Issue


German vocalist Udo Dirkschneider is dealing with a serious health issue and will be partially handicapped during U.D.O.'s extensive European tour, which already kicked off on January, 20th in Madrid. Against all advises of the doctors Udo decided to perform on this tour and not giving a chance to postpone it.

Official statement from the band's Facebook page: "Dear U.D.O. fans, unfortunately we have to tell you that Udo has a serious health problem since early January. He has pain in his left knee and couldn't walk at all for a longer period. He has been to different specialists in Russia, Ibiza and Germany and now he is on a good way to recover. But he is still handicaped and can't move that much without having pain.

"Against all advises of the doctors he has decided to play the tour and not postponing it since he hates to let his fans down. But this means that he is a bit handicapped on stage and can´t move that much. We are very sorry for this but we still have the opinion that this is better than postponing the complete tour. Thanks and see you all on tour!"
