Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band are reportedly set to cancel their May 31 show in Marseille, France, as they pay tribute to legendary artist Patti Smith. The cancellation comes as Springsteen joins a special event celebrating Smith’s immense influence on rock music.
The decision to skip the Marseille concert reflects Springsteen’s deep admiration for Smith, with whom he shares a long history in music. The two artists famously collaborated on Because the Night, a song co-written by Springsteen and made famous by Smith. With Scarlett Johansson and other renowned musicians expected to participate, the tribute concert promises to be a night of powerful performances.
Fans in France, however, will be disappointed by the sudden cancellation. While no official rescheduling has been announced, ticket holders are hoping for a future date. The tribute to Smith is expected to be an emotional and unforgettable event, uniting rock legends in celebration of her legacy.
