Matthias Jabs’ injury brings Scorpions to cancel their upcoming shows

Scorpion‘s guitarist Matthias Jabs has recently been injured and requires surgery and subsequent rehabilitation. His injury forced the German band to cancel their upcoming five shows in their home country, which were also the last one planned for their “Love At First Sting” world tour. The affected shows are following:

11. September 2024 – Nuremberg, Germany @ Arena Nurnberger Versicherung
13. September 2024 – Hamburg, Germany @ Barclays Arena
15. September 2024 – Leipzig, Germany @ Quarterback Immobilien Arena
18. September 2024 – Cologne, Germany @ LANXESS Arena
20. September 2024 – Frankfurt, Germany @ Festhalle

Scorpions commented on how sorry they were for this needed cancellation and apologized to the more than 40.000 fans and ticketholders, as well as to the event organizers.

“We deeply regret, especially Matthias Jabs, that due to the accident of our friend and Scorpions lead guitarist, the five concerts on our German tour cannot take place in September as planned and we will work closely with the tour organizer to announce new information as soon as possible. We kindly ask for your understanding from all our fans, all the Rock Believers in Germany who were looking forward to the shows with us.”

People who purchased a ticket will soon get more information at their point of purchase.
