Charlie Watts, drummer of the Rolling Stones, will NOT be touring with the band in the US due to and "Unspecified Medical Procedure"
The Rolling Stone tweeted that last night that Watts will sit out the US leg of NO FILTER TOUR
Watts is not a founding member of the Rolling Stones but has been a member since 1963.
Long time associate of the Stones Steve Jordan will step in place of Watts.
In a statement, Watts joked that “for once, my timing has been a little off.” “I am working hard to get fully fit but I have today accepted on the advice of the experts that this will take a while,” he added. “After all the fans’ suffering caused by Covid, I really do not want the many RS fans who have been holding tickets for this tour to be disappointed by another postponement or cancellation. I have therefore asked my great friend Steve Jordan to stand in for me.”
The No Filter Tour will hit Raymond James Oct. 29th
