In a statement from Joe he said: “The current COVID-19 virus has now reached pandemic proportions and is making daily life for all of us very challenging. As always, my concern for the health and safety of my fans, my band and crew always takes precedence when touring, and now is no exception. I’ve had to make the difficult but necessary decision to postpone the first leg of the European ‘Shapeshifting’ tour and we are working to reschedule the shows that are affected. Please hold on to your tickets for the rescheduled tour date. Let’s band together to beat this virus and rock another day.”
