Agreed, this seems like a fairly massive overcorrection for the reason given. They don't look good pulling out of this just days after agreeing to save the day... Feels like the reason(s) to justify this would need to be pretty big?

Agreed, particularly since there wasn’t overwhelming positive response from Jazz fest goers that FM was the replacement for the Stones. And Stevie (or more likely Karen) posted on Stevie’s IG page they were excited to be there. Given the cancellations from last week, she was already sick when they posted that. Interesting/vague developments and I expect no less from this band

Weren't 2 of these Canadian shows already rescheduled from the fall when Stevie was sick before? So now they've cancelled these shows twice!

Well, as I've been pointing out, the sales for the April 11 concert have been quite poor compared to last tour. On the weekend I started getting notices about tickets available. When I looked on Ticketmaster, it's 50-60% sold, with drastic price reductions ($260 for row 6, floor). And that doesn't include the LiveNation tickets that are available. So, maybe they are just cutting their losses and using Stevie's flu as an excuse???

Ticketmaster now has the date as TBA, but tickets are still for sale.

This whole tour has been like this for some of the shows. I log on to Facebook and the Canadian shows were being advertised and when you looked they had lots of tickets left and or what they had was very good seats reduced drastically to sell. I think if they really looked at the sales overall they might see that while tickets sold in most markets many were drastically reduced just to get people to buy.

Really hope that they're serious about rescheduling, and not cancelling. The April 5th Philly show was the one show of this tour that I was planning to see.

They have to reschedule 6? I think? Truthfully, I really think it can be a challenge. The Stones tour is likely going to wind up getting pushed out longer than they thought due to arena availability. FM will likely run into the same issue, in 3 very sports heavy markets. And they are looking to reschedule post Europe and Australia/NZ---I feel badly for those folks potentially missing out, but I think it could be tough.

And yet they are/were on course to hit $100 million.
