Fleetwood Mac have postponed the remainder of their North American tour.
According to a tweet from New Orleans Jazz Fest, where they were supposed to perform on May 2, the band have had to pull the final handful of shows due to Stevie Nicks being ill, with the flu according to Rolling Stone. They will be replaced by Widespread Panic at the festival. In a statement, via Rolling Stone, the band said:
“As an update to previous Fleetwood Mac posts regarding a band member illness, Stevie Nicks has the flu. While she is feeling better already, management has consulted with her doctors and have decided to reschedule the remaining four shows of their North American tour to allow for her full recovery.
“Due to sports playoff schedules and existing touring commitments in Europe and Australia, we are looking to move rescheduled cities (Boston, Philadelphia, Toronto, Winnipeg, Edmonton and Calgary) to October/November 2019. Ticketholders will receive new dates and details shortly. Unfortunately the band will not be able to perform at Jazz Fest in New Orleans on May 2.”
Mike Fleetwood added:
"We are having more fun than ever on this current tour, but as we all know, touring life comes with its challenges. The flu has sidelined Stevie for a couple of weeks but she is on the mend and we look forward to getting back out on the road. We so apologize to the fans, but we are working on rescheduling.”
Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Stevie Nicks and Christine McVie, alongside newcomers Mike Campbell formerly of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers plus Crowded House's Neil Finn will take the tour to the UK and Europe this summer, followed by Australia and New Zealand in August and September.
Due to the illness of Stevie Nicks, Fleetwood Mac has just announced the postponement of four upcoming North American tour dates and their performance at Jazz Fest on May 2. Stay tuned for updates about May 2 talent and tickets.
