Gary Numan has left fans concerned during his concert after he stopped his setlist midway through his show on Saturday.
The music legend was performing Please Push No More at the O2 Academy Birmingham when he broke down on stage.
He told the crowd he had received ‘the worst news’ earlier in the day that resulted in him becoming distressed during the set. His worried wife Gemma O’Neil was seen running on stage to comfort him.
The 67-year-old who has Asperger’s syndrome, is due to take to the stage at the Bristol Beacon concert hall on Sunday evening.
Fans flooded social media with concern for Gary, with one commenting: ‘Gary Numan breaks down at O2 in Birmingham?? Hope he’s ok! He’s heard something today but said it’ll all come out in a few days.’
A second posted: ‘Rough to see him so upset during PPNM – not looking forward to hearing the reason in the coming days. Can’t be good. Absolute pro to battle on.’
‘Hearing today that Gary was struggling in his Birmingham show, sending love,’ said a third.
