How can they announce at 11.00am that the tour was back on, then 6 hours later pull it ? Did Mac make a miracle recovery only to be hite by an instant relapse ?

This is getting bloody ridiculous, gutted for those who travelled and paid for hotels.

Whilst this is all a bit of a farce, and it's understandable that people are angry it seems that the band did try to put the gig on, and it was just bad luck and timing that meant they can't play.

I'm sure if any of you lot were feeling under the weather you'd not be too keen on playing either.

On the bright side I save a lot of money! :biggrin:

Nothing with those guys makes any sense. Gig is on! No, actually Ian's gotten worse. ?? Then again, look at all the times Poltergeist cancelled, rescheduled and cancelled again when Les wasn't even out of the hospital!!

Hope anyone that had made plans can get the funds back or enjoy a night out or two. Doesn't help matters as you could've saved or spent the money elsewhere.
In Spain at the moment and a couple people from the States razzed me about not going to the Liverpool show as they were. That's an awful lot of cash to blow.

After hearing about the band's new found live energy and Mac's restored voice I'm looking forward to the soon to be cancelled LA gig.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts
