EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — A sore throat forced pop singer Phil Collins to cancel concerts Sunday night and tonight at Brendan Byrne Arena.
The shows will be rescheduled for Aug. 10 and 11, said Michael Rowe, executive vice president of the New Jersey Sports & Exposition Authority, which operates the arena.
Tickets can be held for the rescheduled shows or refunded where they were bought, Rowe said Sunday.
“It was canceled due to illness, a throat problem,” he said.
The Sunday show was sold out and today’s was expected to have sold out, Rowe said. The arena holds about 15,000 people for concerts.
