Rock band AC/DC have been forced to postpone a series of gigs after frontman Brian Johnson was warned he risks going deaf.
Doctors have told the singer to “stop performing immediately” or face total hearing loss.
AC/DC are due to perform the first concert at London’s Olympic Stadium on June 4.
The gig is expected to ahead after the band said their US dates were being rearranged to later this year, with a guest vocalist likely to feature.
A statement on the group’s website said: “AC/DC are forced to reschedule the 10 upcoming dates on the US leg of their Rock or Bust world tour. Lead singer Brian Johnson has been advised by doctors to stop touring immediately or risk total hearing loss.”
