They have since cancelled their April 30 set at the Monsters Of Rock festival in Bogotá, Colombia as well.

The group said the following about the Buenos Aires show:

“It is with great regret that Scorpions will be unable to perform in Buenos Aires tonight. Klaus has contracted a virus and suspected laryngitis and is unfortunately unable to sing. The band send huge apologies to all their beloved fans in Argentina and are extremely disappointed not to be able to play. They’ll make every effort to return to Argentina in the future.”

They latter added the following about the Bogotá show:

“It is with great regret that Scorpions will be unable to perform in Bogotá tonight. Klaus has still not recovered from the virus and respiratory infection that forced the recent Buenos Aires cancellation for Scorpions and is unfortunately still unable to sing. The band send massive apologies to all their loyal fans in Colombia and are again extremely disappointed not to be able to play in one of their favourite countries. They’ll make every effort to return to Colombia in the future.”
