But the singer mainly gives his own testimony. He explains that in July 2024, he was seized by significant pain linked to the presence of a stone in a kidney. “I had a first alert in Paris for a quarter of an hour, two weeks before, then a second, a little longer, in Corsica on the day of my concert, a few hours before going on stage.” Taken care of and treated with morphine, he still went on stage. “I was probably like those old rockers from the 1970s who were slightly stoned on stage, without anyone noticing my problem. I still put on the show without saying anything. Have you ever heard Jim Morrison sing “Lucie”?”
5 concerts cancelled
The next day, he returned home to the Arcachon basin and after a stay at the Arès hospital ended up at the Bordeaux University Hospital. “I was looked after by extremely caring staff.” He was operated on and the surgeon removed a polyp in his bladder. “I particularly appreciated the fact that he saved me from another operation or even cancer. But I still had to cancel five concerts due to complications, which had never happened to me in my thirty-year career.” This summer, Pascal Obispo had cancelled five concerts, including one in Arcachon and one in Dax, stating only “for health reasons”.
