I’ll be back in the winter with a bigger tour. I had two more seizures and I’m lucky I didn’t break my neck. Really fucking lucky. Thanks for putting up with me,’ the Hackney native told his fans.’
Stephen was scheduled to perform across the UK, with his shows set to kick off in Cardiff, before taking the stage in Birmingham, Glasgow, Newcastle, Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield and finally Brighton on February 21.
