NEW YORK, N.Y. – Barry Manilow has been forced to postpone two concerts following a rough week of oral surgery.

Manilow had surgery twice earlier this week, and still managed to make a concert in Memphis, Tennessee, on Wednesday. But after that, he was brought back to Los Angeles for surgery Friday when complications developed.

A Kentucky concert Thursday night was postponed, along with a Nashville, Tennessee, show on Friday.

Manilow’s doctors say they expect no further complications, but spokeswoman Victoria Varela said that for two days, he’s been instructed not to talk or sing.
