Bret Michaels Postpones Tennessee Concert Due To Kidney Stones
Kidney stones have forced Poison frontman Bret Michaels to cancel a solo concert in Tennessee scheduled for Sunday, November 11. The musician was slated to play the Niswonger Performing Arts Center in Greeneville, but canceled the sold-out concert mere hours before it was supposed to take place “due to a medical emergency.”
“Bret has an incredibly large kidney stone and several small stones that are now in a position that have made Bret immobile,” said a message to fans posted on Michaels’ official Facebook page.
“While kidney stones are extremely painful on their own, being a diabetic complicates the situation and Bret needs to be monitored very carefully. As all Bret’s fans have seen in the past, it takes a dire emergency to keep him from performing. Bret loves his fans and was extremely excited to perform at this new venue for the first time.”
Both Michaels and the venue stated that a makeup date for the show will be announced within the next 24 hours.
