JAKARTA - David Coverdale spoke to Ultimate Classic Rock about Whitesnake's decision to cancel several European shows last summer.

Whitesnake canceled three shows on the European spring/summer tour on June 28, 2022 due to infection with sine and trakea suffered by Coverdale.

Three days later, the rest of the trip was also canceled. At that time, the vocalist blamed the decision on "sustainable health challenges, the doctor's orders, and our concern for everyone's health and safety."

He is not the first member of Whitesnake to fall ill during the European tour of the spring/summer 2022. Guitarist Reb Beach missed several shows on the tour in June 2022 after his condition was not fit.

On June 25, 2022, Whitesnake canceled its show at the Rock Festival in Spain because drummer Tommy Aldridge dropped.

"Last year, I was deeply disturbed by, without a doubt, the worst sine infection I've ever experienced in my life. And as a singer, I know them like my relatives," Coverdale told Ultimate Classic Rock in a new interview.

"Ini adalah salah satu penyakit paling buruk yang saya pikir [pernah] saya mengalami. Selama tujuh bulan, saya mengonsumsi anik yang semakin kuat dan steroid Prednison yang mengerikan."

Coverdale went on to say he really didn't know when he would return to the stage.

"I'm going to be 72 years old," he said. "But, you know, my passion is a much younger man, especially with the new creative team I have, working on this legacy project and also new things at the same time. It's like a blue bird flying out of every hole."
