Yes, this is exactly correct. If you got specific and said, one of the members has bronchitis and would not be able to perform at full capacity, we want to postpone the show and reschedule on another date to give you your money's worth, I think we would all be perfectly happy with that.

"Undisclosed illness" sounds phony and melodramatic. I will only forgive 'em if one of them has the black plague. Swine flu would not be enough to justify such mystery.
