Johnny Hallyday’s producer cancels last half of French rocker’s tour following hospitalization

French rocker Hallyday’s tour canceled

PARIS — The producers for French rocker Johnny Hallyday have canceled the final leg of a concert tour following his hospitalization.

Hallyday, who is France’s biggest rock star, was hospitalized last week in Los Angeles following complications from an operation performed on his back in November. Doctors awakened him Tuesday after several days in a medically induced coma.

In a statement Wednesday, his producers said medical experts found 66-year-old Hallyday “temporarily indisposed” and they were canceling the remaining concerts.

Hallyday was set to resume his “Route 66″ tour January 8, with shows in France through Feb. 13. The statement said those with tickets to the canceled concerts will be reimbursed.
