Bono in Munich Hospital Following Surgery

U2 frontman/megastar Bono underwent emergency back surgery Friday in Munich following an injury while preparing for the next leg of the bands "360 Degree" world tour, causing delays in tour dates.

The US leg of the tour was planned to kick off on June 3 in Salt Lake City, which has already been postponed. Paul Guiness, the bands longtime manager, hinted that Bono's injury could cause even more delays in the tour.

"It's unfortunate that we're inconveniencing fans" he says "We will make plans to reinstate these dates as soon as possible."

A spokesperson for the 50 year old Ireland native said that the singer was admitted to a specialist neuro surgery unit in Munich Hospital.

"Bono will spend the next few days there, before returning home to recuperate." the spokeperson stated. "Once his condition has been assessed further, a statement will be made regardingthe impact on forthcoming tour dates."

We just hope you feel better soon, Bono Vox.
