Back in November 2021, Journey announced the Freedom Tour 2022 with Billy Idol supporting on the first 22 dates, and Toto filling the slot on the remaining dates. Sadly, Idol has been forced to pull out of the tour and has issued the following statement:

"I am absolutely gutted. I haven’t felt like myself since mid-December with a sinus infection that won’t respond to medication. It has worsened to the point where I have no choice but to have a procedure which I expect will put me on a path to recovery soon.

 The last thing I ever want to do is cancel shows and I am absolutely gutted that I won’t be able to perform the upcoming dates with Journey as planned.

I wish Journey only the best on their tour and give thanks to Toto for stepping in for me."
