Jamiroquai Reschedule Summer London O2 Arena Dates
Thursday, 15 June 2017
Written by Jon Stickler
Jamiroquai have been forced to postpone their summer dates at the O2 Arena in London due to Jay Kay's ongoing back injury.
The vocalist is currently recuperating and in rehabilitation after two operations last week and as a result has been advised to postpone the two shows later this month, which will now take place on December 3 and 6. At present, additional shows remain unaffected.
Jay Kay has released the following statement:
Hi J here
It is with great regret that again I have to disappoint people due to the ongoing problem with my back. I have never felt so frustrated with a situation as I feel now, and I am desperate to get back to form. After two operations I am only marginally more active, and I know I could never give the 125% energy I need to give to you good people a super show. I am a proud man, and it breaks my heart to have to keep moving these performances and asking for people’s patience. I am distraught at this and am feeling very low.
2017 is turning out to be a tough year, with the loss of several close friends in quick succession and the inability to perform properly in the way I’ve been doing, and the only way I know how to, since I did my first gig at 17 years old.
I want to thank all of you for the messages of support you have sent me. I can’t quite believe how kind you all are. A thousand thanks.
I want to apologise to all of you who have no doubt made travel plans and taken time out to see us in Paris, Athens and London O2, but I give you my word - I promise you I will come back and give you the shows you deserve. Faster, harder and stronger.
Thank you all so much once again for your unerring love and patience, your posts have really picked me up.
From a very wounded Buffalo.
Lots of love,
Jx
