Billy Idol has been forced to postpone the first two shows of his North American tour due to a “pesky chest infection” but the situation does not effect Australian dates for March

Idol is promoting his new album, Kings and Queens of the Underground, which was released in October. It is his first studio set since 2005’s Devil’s Playground.

Billy released a statement, saying:

I’m really disappointed to be missing everyone this week in the Big Easy and Atlanta. I was excited for these gigs but want to make sure I can give you the full on Idol rock show you deserve. Thank you for understanding while I get over this bug. We’ll be back later this year!
