The Rolling Stones have been making their way throughout Europe to celebrate 60 years of rock ‘n’ roll. Unfortunately, there will be a pause in the European tour as frontman Mick Jagger just announced he has tested positive for the COVID-19 virus. The band will be forced to postpone their show in Amsterdam that was supposed to take place tonight.

“The Rolling Stones are deeply sorry for tonight’s postponement, but the safety of the audience, fellow musicians and the touring crew has to take priority,” the band announced on social media.

Jagger also posted, “I’m so sorry that we’ve had to postpone the Amsterdam show with such short notice tonight. I have unfortunately tested positive for COVID. We aim to reschedule the date ASAP and get back as soon as we can. Thank you all for your patience and understanding. -Mick.”
