Tonight's Manchester show is cancelled

[Stu]

Damn.
After they thought it would go ahead too.

Here's hoping they're ok to continue from Sunday's IoW fest onwards.

Looking at the arena website, it seems like it's not been rescheduled either. Not very happy about that.

OK, got a text message saying I've been refunded for the meet and greet. I've bought one of the few remaining M&G tickets for 1st July. Second row this time unfortunately

[jbrownsjr]

Wow, they could at least let the fans know why. There's no shame in being ill.

That's a nice way to treat people. That was my 30th birthday gift from my sister to get us both tickets (she's a big fan too)

Now I don't suppose we'll ever get the chance to see them again.

Isle of Wight Festival: Fleetwood Mac update after Manchester gig cancelled - http://t.co/bAwIgrcnBi #iwnews #iwcp

This is my second cancelled show after Lindsey cancelled his show at The Lowry in December 2011. Maybe he should have done his makeup show for that one tonight

Sorry to all the people who had tickets.

Maybe Chris is really ill, but a part of me believes this is so they're all fresh for IoW: the big money grabber.

If this is the case, the band shouldn't be treating fans in this way: if they couldn't commit to all these dates, why make them in the first place?

[Macfanforever]

Sorry to hear this news guys.It sucks big time for you travelers.

I found this in my Google Stevie/FM newswatch section.

Fleetwood Mac cancel Manchester Arena show tonight

12:13, 12 June 2015
By Jade Wright

Many Liverpool fans were expected to travel to see the band play the show tonight


Fleetwood Mac have cancelled their Manchester Arena gig due to illness.

It is the second gig in a week the British-American band has cancelled, after Birmingham's gig on Wednesday was postponed and rescheduled for a later date.

A tour promoter statement said: "We are very sorry to announce that tonight’s Fleetwood Mac ‘On With The Show’ tour date in Manchester has been cancelled due to illness.

"Refunds for tonight’s cancelled date in Manchester will be issued automatically within 14 days.

"The 1 July show will go ahead as planned.

"Should you need any further assistance, please contact your ticket seller directly."

No further details, such as which member has taken ill, have been made available.

Fleetwood Mac are also scheduled to headline the Isle of Wight Festival on Sunday.

Stevie Nicks and co are in the middle of their On With The Show Tour, which takes in the UK and Ireland before the band jet off to play arenas in Australia.

It's really difficult to remain a fan of a band that continually ****s over it's fans....

[poetinmyheart]

Am really sad for everyone who had tickets and is now unable to go and see them on another date. I hate to think there's something shady going on and these dates have been cancelled in prep for IOW. Surely not. Disappointing to think that's the case

[Blue Horizon]

Feel sorry for all of you due to attend tonight's show with no re-scheduled date announced. Found this quote from the Manchester Evening news:

No further details, such as which member has taken ill, have been made available and the MEN understands tour promoters have failed to find a date to reschedule tonight's Manchester show.

As we know that Christine has lost her voice, it might be a case of a close call on whether to risk her voice before the Isle of Wight gig and put that show at risk.
Still no consolation for all you guys

If that turns out to be their attitude, then it ****ing stinks.
