Post Malone cancels another show after landing back in the hospital
The rapper postponed a Boston show scheduled for Saturday due to a persistent "stabbing pain"

Even with grills as sparkling as Post Malone’s, not every pain can be resolved by grinning and bearing it. After injuring his ribs during a nasty onstage fall last week in St. Louis, the rapper postponed a Boston show scheduled for September 24 after landing back in the hospital with what he describes as “stabbing pain.”
Malone (whose full name is Austin Richard Post) shared his own statement on Saturday apologizing for the abrupt cancellation of the show just minutes after the TD Garden (the show’s venue) announced the postponing of Malone’s performance due to “unforeseen circumstances.” The venue also instructed fans to hold onto their tickets “for a new date once it is announced.”
Malone opens his message with characteristic fan-first gratitude, writing: “Boston, I love y’all so fucking much.”
“On tour, I usually wake up around 4 o’clock PM, and today I woke up to a cracking sounds [sic] on the right side of my body,” Malone shares. “I felt so good last night, but today it felt so different than it has before. I’m having a very difficult time breathing, and there’s like a stabbing pain whenever I breathe or move. We’re in the hospital now, but with this pain, I can’t do the show tonight. I’m so fucking sorry.”
Malone had been on tour for one week (and five stops) before the St. Louis accident on September 17. While performing, Malone caught his foot in an onstage trap door that had been left ajar, causing him to land hard on his back. Malone’s manager shared in an Instagram post that the rapper was subsequently treated for bruised ribs.
Malone concludes his message by vowing to both continue his tour and reschedule the date he missed. “I feel terrible, but I promise I’m going to make this up to you,” Malone writes. “I love you Boston, I’ll see you soon.”

Getting old sucks.
This is really more “falling unexpectedly through a failed trapdoor sucks”. The video shows he fell really hard, directly on his chest/abdomen (not sure why the article says he fell on his back), there’s no way anybody is taking that fall without some damage.
He’s not even 30 yet. He looks much older than he is and no offense to him, but whatever his lifestyle choices are, they aren’t doing him any favors.
Being sponsored by Bud Light and smoking two packs a day (per Posts on admission) will do that to you.
He hell into a hole on the stage. Bud Light and smokes aren’t responsible for that, stupid.
Wow, so he has the same habits as my dad did in the 70’s. He’s kicking it old school!
Making tons of shitty music doesn’t help either
This isn’t from getting old and the article makes that pretty clear.
I was just starting a new topic.
Why?
Do I need a reason?
You don’t need a reason to do anything, but that doesn’t mean others can’t question it.
“Getting old sucks.”
So does falling into a hole on a stage and breaking your ribs.
But yeah, aging, AMIRITE?
When Austin first posted about his condition, I put on my armchair ED attending hat and guessed two things: it could be a blood clot (DVT maybe moved from his leg to his left lung), or the lung was injured. I think it’s the latter now.
I suppose you can expect the tattooist to keep track of all the needles. Bound to leave a few behind.
“Where they found #2 will REALLY surprise you!”
I saw that in an Underdog episode (only with a sword, not a needle).When I stand up, I’m right as rain.
But when I bend over, there’s a stabbing pain.
Man, this guy is going to Post Post Malone before long.
As much fun as it would be to dunk on this dude constantly, he actually always comes across as a genuinely nice dude with a good heart, and I’ll admit he can write one helluva hook when it feels like it. Get well soon, Mr. Post!
