However, bassistMike Levinewas missing from the lineup — for a surprisingly relatable reason. According to Levine, 76, he had a medical appointment he simply couldn't reschedule. "In the land of where medicine is free, it takes long times to get specialist appointments. And I've been waiting for four months to see this guy," he explained during an appearance on SiriusXM's "Trunk Nation With Eddie Trunk." 🎬SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox🎬 "And my [doctor] appointment was booked for [June 6] at 11:00 a.m. — this morning.
