, ,

Some sad news for fans of the Goo Goo Dolls.

The band announced Sunday morning they would be cancelling the remaining dates on their Canadian tour.

That includes shows in Halifax and Moncton, scheduled for April 10 and 11, respectively.

According to a post on the band’s social media, the cancellation was necessary due to an illness for singer and guitarist John Rzeznik.

“John was diagnosed with pneumonia and has not fully recovered,” the band said in the post.

“We are very disappointed and can’t wait to get back to Canada as soon as possible.”

The post said all tickets would be refunded at point of purchase.

Halifax’s Scotiabank Centre has posted to their website about the cancellation.

The site says all tickets will be automatically refunded by Ticketmaster tot he original method of payment in 14 to 21 days.

The Avenir Centre in Moncton posted about the cancellation on social media, but had not said anything about refunds on Sunday morning.
