    Hopefully the first of many, then maybe we’ll get someone who can actually sing

  • Paul Thomason says:

    Not his first. He cancelled the Met Opera concert on Monday the 10th.

  • Charles says:

    Could they not just play one of his recordings, as he can only be heard through a sound system.

  • CA says:

    He cancelled last Friday Feb 8 in Charlotte. Not sure the reason. Some people said they were told he had laryngitis.

  • Diane Wall says:

    Hope he is ok

  • Janet m martin says:

    What about thursday feb 13th?

    His voice is wonderful!

  • Reagan says:

    He has been postponing, not cancelling.

  • Cora says:

    Get well soon Andrea, these germs are everywhere; even my neighbor’s 6 month baby has it…not singing just crying..☹️

  • Sally says:

    There were previous cancellations. Sure hope he gets feeling better. BTW It damages the vocal cords to sing while they are inflamed

  • Peter says:

    He cancelled the Met on Monday so Miami was not his first cancellation check the facts

  • G Man says:

    Call Marcelito Pomoy of the Philippines to substitute Bocelli. He can mimic the song and voice of Andrea Bocelli.

    My husband and I went to Andrea Bocelli concert in Atlanta last night. Even though he was feeling sick, his voice sounded much better than the majority of these singers we see around. He’s one of the best!
