Linkin Park has been forced to cancel its China tour as lead singer Chester Bennington has suffered a back injury, and is under doctor's orders to refrain from traveling or any physical activities.

A statement posted on Linkin Park's official website said the band was canceling shows scheduled for October 12, 15 and 19 in Shanghai, Wuhan and Beijing.

The band also canceled its show in Taipei, the capital of Taiwan.

The concerts were organized as fundraisers for victims of May's deadly earthquake in China's Sichuan province.

However, thanks to the promoter of its Chinese concerts Emma Ticketmaster and Linkin Park, funds will still be contributed to the band's nonprofit organization, Music for Relief, and matched by the World Bank.
