Singer-songwriter John Mayer had to postpone a concert for an emergency appendectomy
NEW YORK — John Mayer was hospitalized on Tuesday for an emergency appendectomy.
A representative for the Grammy-winning musician said Mayer was admitted to the hospital Tuesday morning. He had been due to perform at a concert in New Orleans with the Dead & Company, but that date has been postponed.
Dead & Company tweeted that all tickets for the Dec. 5 concert will be honored at the rescheduled date. Tickets can also be refunded.
The 40-year-old singer-songwriter had performed with the Dead & Company as recently as Sunday. Mayer was active on social media Monday night, tweeting an apology to a Huffington Post writer after he incorrectly stated that correct style was to write out « number two » in headlines.
Mayer dealt with another health scare in 2013 when he had to have surgery and injections to treat a growth called a granuloma on his vocal cords.
