Ed Sheeran was knocked off of his bicycle in London a few days ago and today he confirmed that he'll be cancelling the leg of his tour in Asia as he heals up.

teddysphotos A visit to my doctors confirmed fractures in my right wrist and left elbow that will leave me unable to perform live concerts for the immediate future. Sadly, this means that the following shows will not be able to go ahead as planned: Taipei, Osaka, Seoul, Tokyo and Hong Kong. I’m waiting to see how the healing progresses before we have to decide on shows beyond that. Please stay tuned for more details. PS - Ed isn’t typing this as he has both arms casted/bandaged

John Mayer wishes him well

Heal up quick, @edsheeran. Just remember, you’re Superman even without the cape.

Karma for "shape of you" never dying on the radio.

Caitlyn is on a warpath

sux for him. this is the first of his tours I haven't been to, mainly bc I was on holiday when he was in my country, but also bc of the huge ticket price increase. I saw him on the '+' tour for 19 euros, then on the 'x' tour for 35 and apparently this year the price was like 80 euros so I refuse to go lol.

lmao wow, fuck those prices. eternally regretting never seeing him on the + tour tho.

ikr? as if he isn't rich enough. he used to be all "I wanna keep my shows affordable so my fans can see them bla bla bla" and now he's just another greedy artist.

the '+' tour was great because he wasn't that famous yet over here, I saw him at this little concert hall of about 900 people back then, with Passenger as the supporting act. It will always be my fav show of his.

lol he made that a big part of the Jumpers for Goalposts shows at Wembley too but tickets were still £60

Does that mean we get to see less of his ugly undercooked soggy loaf of bread face? Because that is always a plus.

now you get to see his pasty, rancid sausage-skinned limbs wrapped in bandages and hear his fans take a break from their mouth-breathing to type a well-wishes tweet.

don't hog all the fun.

oh yassss i can't wait

it must fucking suck to have both arms broken at the same time. like what do you even do with yourself while healing up ?

When I clicked on this I expected something funny and not incest.

I just knew seeing a link under that comment could only mean one thing since it's where my mind went...I nearly blocked it completely

Nooooooooooooooo

NO NOT you linking to THAT post.

pretensetious

i mean he was at an event yesterday even though both of his arms are broken so i think he's OK

an accident like that would scare me from riding a bike for a while though

This sounds like an accident that happened when he was completely sober.

sucks. i broke both my arms at the same time a few years back also. not ideal tbh

That was my thought. It's not like hes usually doing anything elaborate on stage.

Idk, doesn't he construct all the different parts of every song using that looping pedal for this tour? Seems pretty intricate.

except he is. his entire set is live looped.

I think a lot of fans would be disappointed if they didn't get to see him play guitar tbh, since that's one of his main things

I don't understand why he went full blown canceling and didn't just reschedule the dates. Even if they were for a year from now. Rescheduling is better than just straight canceling.

He could learn a thing or 2 from Dave Grohl.....

It's just him, his guitar and a loop pedal and he doesn't have a band. He records the music for that concert while on stage with the loop pedal and then plays the guitar to that recording minutes later. He said he didn't want to "short change" fans who paid to see him do all that shit.

his entire show is him with a guitar and a loop pedal, he makes all the instrumentals himself using that, so it'd kinda take away a main component of the show

He's talked about that before and said that he feels like having a band up there with him would take away from what he does. Also that since he's always performed the show completely solo he feels like that's what fans pay for and he'd be shortchanging them

that's so scary, i've seen way too many bike vs car accidents, especially at my college campus and it's terrifying every time. glad he's ok.
