AMSTERDAM (Reuters) -The Rolling Stones plan to return to Amsterdam on July 7 to make up for a concert that was canceled earlier this week after lead singer Mick Jagger tested positive for COVID-19, promoter Mojo said on Wednesday.
In a tweet shared on Wednesday, the Stones said Mick Jagger was feeling much better. “All other dates from next week are scheduled to go ahead as planned,” the group added in a separate tweet.
The Stones’ Monday performance was canceled at the last minute after Jagger experienced coronavirus symptoms at Amsterdam’s Johan Cruyff Arena.
This forced the band to also postpone a concert scheduled for Friday in Bern, Switzerland, as a spokesperson for the band said the 78-year old Jagger had quarantined in the Netherlands for at least five days.
