JOHN PRINE HAS OPERABLE LUNG CANCER



Singer-songwriter John Prine announced on his website Nov 21, 2013 that he has an operable form of cancer, "non-small cell carcinoma," on his lung. His Nashville-based doctors caught it early: "They see no reason why I won't fully recover," he said. Prine also underscored that this episode is unrelated to the cancer he beat in 1997, when doctors discovered a growth on his neck. To plan around his surgery and recuperation time, though, he has to move his two Louisville performances to February 28 and March 1. His Madison, Wisconsin show will take place on March 15. The Green Bay makeup date has yet to be announced. Previously purchased tickets will be honored at the new shows. "For me, there's nothing like performing," Prine said. "I look forward to seeing all my friends and fans in 2014. We have some great cities and venues lined up." - Rolling Stone
