Barry Manilow took to X on Friday afternoon to share an update about the cancerous spot on his lung. He said he is making “great progress” in his recovery, but his doctor told him he’s “not quite ready” to perform and must postpone some upcoming Las Vegas dates.
“Good news! I went to the doctor yesterday and he said I’m making great progress and look great,” Manilow wrote. “Well of course I do! Thank you very much! All the training and exercising I’ve put in is paying off. He did say, however, that I’m not quite ready for Vegas. That means I won’t be able to return for our May shows at [Westgate Las Vegas]. But the good news is he said I will be ready for my June arena shows in the UK. It’s going to be great to see you all in the UK. Westgate Las Vegas is my home away from home…and I’ll see you all in July. In the meantime…come to the UK! We’ll be there in June and hope you will be too! See you then… Barry.”
