24/02/03 - COLISEU, PORTO

Canadian singer Bryan Adams was forced to cancel the first of two concerts in Portugal on Monday after he lost his voice during a weekend concert in Spain, organisers of the event said on Tuesday.

"Bryan Adams lost his voice in the Spanish capital, was treated in hospital and returned to his hotel where he had to remain for 24 hours without speaking," spokesperson Nuno Braancamp told reporters after the cancellation of the gig in the northern city of Oporto.

The 43-year-old Grammy winner cut short a concert in Madrid on Sunday night after developing problems with his voice, according to Portuguese press reports.

Tickets for his concert in Oporto, Portugal's second largest city, had been sold out for weeks.
