Public Enemy Postpones Australian Tour Due to Surgery

Public Enemy has postponed their Australian tour due to frontman Chuck D requiring urgent eye surgery. The tour, originally scheduled to begin on October 5, included performances in Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane as part of their 35th Anniversary celebration of their iconic album 'It Takes A Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back'. In a statement, Chuck D expressed his regret and emphasized the need for the surgery to ensure he can perform energetically. Existing ticketholders will be notified of rescheduled dates and will not need to take any action regarding their tickets, which will remain valid. Refunds are available for those who prefer not to wait, with details accessible via the Ticketek website. This would have marked the group's first tour in Australia in a decade, following their 2013 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction.
