    Duran Duran Axe European Tour Over Simon Le Bon's Voice Trouble

    Duran Duran have been forced to postpone their European tour due to the ongoing voice difficulties of singer Simon Le Bon.

    The 52-year-old is suffering from from laryngeal problems, which also caused their May UK tour to be postponed.

    The band's latest postponements including an appearance at this month's iTunes festival in London and the V Festivals in August.

    Le Bon said postponing the tour had been an "extremely difficult decision to make", but added: "I need to take some more time away from shows to get back to full strength.”

    The singer is due to undergo physiotherapy treatment to overcome the problem, which is thought to have been triggered at a gig in Cannes in May.
