Illnesses have forced the cancellation of two major shows in Britain.
Fleetwood Mac postponed their show at Genting Arena in Birmingham due to illness although they did not elaborate on who was sick within the group. A message posted on the band’s website announced a rescheduled date:
We are very sorry to announce that due to illness the Fleetwood Mac concert at Birmingham Genting Arena this evening will not take place and has been re-scheduled for Tuesday, 7th July 2015.
All tickets remain valid for the re-scheduled performance.
Meanwhile, Tony Bennett has cancelled his second performance with Lady Gaga at Royal Albert Hall due to his coming down with the flu. The duo had performed at the venue on Monday night at a special gala in support of the charity WellChild.
Bennett’s reps released a statement:
Unfortunately, Tony Bennett has come down with a flu virus which has prevented him from performing the second of two sold-out shows in London. Ticket holders are instructed to retain their tickets to this event pending more information. Fans who have purchased tickets online will be notified via the ticket outlets as soon as additional information is available.
Sorry to not be singing in London tonight. I love my fans in the UK and appreciate all the well wishes to get over this flu quickly.
