“Due to illness, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band’s concert at Mohegan Sun Arena on Sunday March 12 has been postponed,” Springsteen wrote on Twitter.
“We are working on rescheduling the date so please hold on to your tickets as they will be valid for the rescheduled show.”

The group’s next scheduled tour date is this Tuesday (March 14) at MVP Arena in Albany, New York.
E Street Band guitarist Stevie Van Zandt added: “No need to be anxious or afraid. Nothing serious. Just a temporary situation. We will all be back in full force very soon.”
The US leg of their current tour has 15 dates remaining. The band head to Europe in late April before returning to the US this summer and autumn.
The musician is currently on a US tour with his E Street Band, which is the first time they’ve hit the road in six years.
Performing in Atlanta, Georgia on February 3, Springsteen tossed his guitar to assistant Kevin Buell – a routine move during his shows – but slipped through the tech’s fingers and struck him on the head.
