AUSTIN (AP) - Bruce Springsteen's Wednesday concert in Austin has been postponed because his
sax player, Clarence Clemons, underwent surgery for a detached retina.
E-Street's Clemons underwent surgery after Monday night's show in Houston, said Harris Cohen,
spokesman for Shore Fire Media in New York City, Springsteen's representative.
"The surgery was successful," Cohen said, adding he was not aware of 60-year-old Clemons having
any previous eye trouble. The surgery was done in Houston, Cohen said. He declined to release
details on the hospital or which eye was involved.
Cohen did not know a date for the rescheduled concert, but the Austin American-Statesman reported it
had been set for March 2.
The status of other performances, including the next scheduled stop on the tour in Columbus, Ohio, on
Saturday isn't yet known.
The band began the second leg of the U.S. tour in Dallas on Sunday.
