"The Rolling Stones are deeply sorry for
tonight’s postponement, but the safety of the audience, fellow
musicians and the touring crew has to take priority," they said.
Jagger, 78, had experienced symptoms after arriving at
Amsterdam's Johan Cruijff ArenA, the band said.
Representatives for Mojo Concerts, which had organized the
band's appearance in the Netherlands, came onstage to inform the
audience at ArenA, a football stadium, an hour and a half before
the concert was due to begin.
"He can't sing, he can't play," an unnamed announcer told fans.
"There is no show tonight ... it is what it is."
Amsterdam was to be the fourth stop in the "Stones Sixty"
European tour, following an appearance in Liverpool on Thursday.
