Apprently due to Brian's on-going health issues, he is says he needs to rest and was not confident of his performance being up to the standard he would like
Very concerning, to cancel that far in advance seems like is something fairly major, I sincerely hope not and it's just a lack of rest

He has spoken on a few occasions recently (on Soapbox, Twitter, and in fan club message) of suffering from his depression at the moment. Vey concerning for it to be so obvious and so public, and to necessitate cancelling the tour. He does take on too much work, and whilst they are mostly labours of love and passion, he really does over do it and does not really rest adequately. I hope all else is well in his home and family life, and that is helping rather than adding to his woes.
Lambert brings to no good
It's a shame indeed. Hoping the best for Bri, a swift full recovery.
I wish Brian recovers soon. He deserves all the best.

Yes indeed - I hope Dr Bri feels brighter soon. Poor guy.
I hope our moaning over the new releases did not cause his depression.

Don't be an asshole.
Hope Brian takes some time and is able to heal and recover in whatever way he needs to.

Try wishing him the best, instead of acting like an ass hole.
Whats wrong? We know Queen can hide some illness...
Is there something wrong with cancer? I hope not....

Let's hope he will recover soon. Come on, Brian!

That comment just frightens me. Don't even. He's way too young.
It's a worry when we don't know exactly what the "illness" is, but obviously Brian has a right to his privacy, and may (or may not) tell us in his own good time.
Let's just hope it's a matter which can be resolved by rest and that he has many more years left in him. If Chuck Berry can put out a new album at 90, there's hope for us all! :)

Me too. I had two thoughts when I read the news. The depression he's been touching at recently but then i thought of his cancer scare from a few years back that came back negative but iirc there was some vagueness as to everything being okay even then....It was forgotten as he moved on with touring and working with kerry etc.
Although I also find it strange that he cancels these gigs but a week or so ago he's talking about touring with Queen in 2017. I wonder if canceling the KE gigs are about being able to recover for that tour...
Either way I hope Brian gets what he needs and is able to come back revitalized!
