Lewis Capaldi fans were gearing up for the pre-sale for his upcoming tour after he announced triumphant comeback following a two-year hiatus…
Jimmy Barnes is truly on the mend following his shock health scare last year which saw him undergo open heart surgery.
The rock star, 68, shared a glimpse at his pre-show ritual as he underwent a massage ahead of taking the stage, posting an image of the process to Instagram on Monday.
Laid up on a table under towels, he had his head tended to before performing in New Zealand on the latest leg of his tour.
‘Some magic body work to get me ready to get back to touring. Thanks Jacki’ he wrote in his caption.
‘The New Zealand leg of our Hell of a Time tour is coming up, Aotearoa here we come’ Jimmy continued.
‘Everyone for getting your tickets and joining us. I’m really enjoying this show, it’s a lot fun.’
Last week, the singer looked fit as a fiddle as he posed up a storm in a boxing ring.
During a holiday with his wife Jane in Thailand, he shared a photo to Instagram in which he posed in his luxury hotel gym.

Barnes was all smiles in the sweet picture as he hammed it up for the camera by holding up his arms in a boxer’s stance, as he jokingly prepared to spar.
He looked healthy and confident in the picture, as he flashed his trademark cheeky grin to the camera.
Jimmy captioned the photo with some insightful words: ‘When you’re in hotels and in transit, it’s great to keep up exercise and movement.
‘This is the first hotel gym I’ve found with a Thai boxing ring. I can see another hip replacement… Maybe not… I think my wife Jane is going to have a go.’

The Cold Chisel singer also shared a gallery of photos showing him having fun with relatives in Bangkok, as he revealed he was listening to the State of Origin on the radio.
Late last year, Jimmy was struck down by a life-threatening infection that attacked his heart – he then underwent successful open heart surgery.
Reflecting on his health struggles, he admitted he told his wife Jane that he didn’t think he was going to make it while lying in Sydney’s St Vincent’s Hospital.
‘I just had this horrible morbid feeling because I’ve never felt this sick before. I thought I was gone,’ he recently told 60Minutes.
Just hours before checking into hospital, an unwell Jimmy had taken to the stage at a memorial concert for his late friend and promoter, Michael Gudinski.

He told how he was so unwell he could barely remember the show and said he was sweating and had a fever backstage – Barnes was scheduled to fly abroad for a another concert but instead went to the hospital as his health deteriorated.
A team of specialists discovered his body was shutting down because an infection in his blood was causing endocarditis – a life-threatening inflammation of the heart.
By the time he was wheeled into the operating theatre for a open heart surgery, his doctors said he had just hours to live – In a marathon seven-hour surgery, the physicians succ
essfully replaced his damaged valves and repaired his heart.
Seven months on, Barnes’ recovery is going well and he recently announced his band Cold Chisel would be embarking on a national tour later this year.
