Goo Goo Dolls Reveal Illness While Cancelling Another Show The Goo Goo Dolls announced on April 2, 2026, that they would cancel their scheduled concert in Hamilton, Ontario, due to lead singer John Rzeznik’s diagnosis of pneumonia. The band shared the news via social media, stating, “With sorrow and gratitude, we must cancel tonight’s show at TD Coliseum in Hamilton as John has been diagnosed with pneumonia.” This marks the third consecutive show cancellation for the group, following previous postponements in the Sault Ste. Marie and Oshawa. The band’s decision to cancel the Hamilton performance came after they had already missed a show in Oshawa the previous night. Earlier in the week, they had also skipped their concert in the Sault Ste. Marie on Monday, leading to a string of cancellations that have disrupted their tour schedule. The band expressed hope to resume their tour on Saturday in London, Ontario, as stated in their social media post. Rzeznik’s illness has forced the group to adjust their itinerary, with fans in Hamilton and other affected cities left without tickets for the canceled events. The band’s management did not provide further details about Rzeznik’s condition or the expected timeline for his recovery. However, the announcement emphasized the band’s commitment to prioritizing his health over their performance schedule. This incident adds to a pattern of cancellations for the Goo Goo Dolls, who have faced logistical challenges and health-related setbacks in recent months. Fans have been advised to check for updates on rescheduled dates or alternative events, though no specific information was provided about refunds or ticket replacements for the canceled shows.#goo_goo_dolls #td_coliseum #john_rzeznik #hamilton_ontario #sault_ste_marie
