Scorpions have postponed their upcoming residency in Las Vegas to allow drummer Mikkey Dee to recover from illness.
The German rock legends were scheduled to begin their residency at PH Live at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino on February 27, with four further shows in early March.
"We regret to inform you that due to Mikkey Dee’s ongoing recovery from his recent hospitalization, we have made the decision to postpone our Coming Home to Las Vegas Residency to August 2025," say the band. "The health and well-being of our brother is of the utmost importance. We wish Mikkey a full and speedy recovery and look forward to rocking with you all again soon!"
The first of the new dates will be on August 14, and the run will wrap up on August 23. All tickets will be honoured for the new dates, or ticket-holders may request refunds from the point of purchase.
Earlier this month, Dee told Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet that he developed sepsis after spraining his foot last month. He underwent three bouts of surgery to remove the infection, and spent three weeks in hospital in his hometown of Gothenburg, Sweden.
"I became very ill so I had to go by ambulance to Sahlgrenska and there they found that I had sky-high values, so I became priority one there," said Dee. "It was surgery right away, the first of three. They cut away what was dead and infected and badly infested. It was not a good journey I was on… Another day and I’d be playing drums with Lemmy in Heaven. I can say that."
Scorpions next scheduled show is at Foro Sol in Mexico City, Mexico, on March 15. Full dates below.
