Nickelback cancelled the second leg of the tour in June when doctors first diagnosed Kroeger with a cyst on his vocal cords.

He recently underwent surgery and the group was scheduled to resume the European leg of the tour in September.

But doctors now say Kroeger needs to remain on vocal rest for the next six to eight months in order to heal completely.

Organizers say ticket refunds will be available at the point of purchase.
