Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora has been forced to postpone a number of North American shows due to vocal problems.
Sambora has contracted Laryngitis and on doctors orders has been told to “go on a full vocal rest”.
Shows affected are Philadelphia tonight (Oct 18), Toronto (Oct 20) and New York (Oct 23).
The Toronto show will be rescheduled for early 2013 but there is no word yet on rescheduled New York and Philadelphia dates.
Richie Sambora recently released his second solo album ‘Aftermath of the Lowdown’.
