Melodic rock icons Magnum have cancelled their upcoming UK and European tour dates after guitarist and songwriter Tony Clarkin was diagnosed with a rare spinal condition. The run of shows, to support Magnum's upcoming Here Comes The Rain album, was scheduled to begin in Mannheim, Germany, on April 4, with UK shows beginning later that month.
Writing on the band's website and social media channels, Clarkin says, "I’m afraid I have some bad news for you guys. Over the past year or so I’ve been bothered by increasingly bad pains in my neck and head. For a long time the docs couldn’t work out why, but now they’ve found out and it’s gonna mean some changes.
