AceShowbiz - The Rolling Stones have put their No Filter tour of North America on hold as they wait for the global coronavirus pandemic to pass.
All 15 dates on the trek, which was scheduled to begin in San Diego, California in May, have been postponed.
"We're hugely disappointed to have to postpone the tour," a band statement reads. "We are sorry to all the fans who were looking forward to it as much as we were, but the health and safety of everyone has to take priority. We will all get through this together - and we'll see you very soon."
Since the pandemic began, a number of top acts have been forced to cancel or postpone performances and entire tours. These include Madonna, Queen, Green Day, Slipknot, Elton John, Guns N' Roses, Alanis Morissette, Bangtan Boys a.k.a. BTS, and the Jonas Brothers.
Meanwhile, officials in several countries have shut down music venues and clubs as health experts suggest limiting public gatherings to 50 or fewer people.
