Well it would be fine by me if they just let LH go ahead & play for a couple of hours. Are there actually people there to see INXS??? I guess I'm being evil again. Just so disappointed. Maybe it's a good sign that I haven't seen any posts from KC people about it being postponed.

I'm so sorry you guys. I really hope that they reschedule it and you can all go. I, too, thought how great it would be if they had the LHs just play the whole time. Wouldn't that rock? Sigh.

It will definitely be rescheduled, just don't know when yet. & Marty will do a naked dance just for me to make up for the inconvenience...ya....ya, that's right, lmao. It would rock if they just let LH cover it, but I doubt that will happen. Just can't fathom INXS going for that.

I saw JD do an acoustic session in Denver and his chest cold is really affecting his voice. After seeing him do his best for the radio station winners but having to take frequent sips of hot tea to get through two songs I was amazed that he got through the Denver show last night as well as he did. He told me that the constant traveling had made it worse with his cold, especially air travel. I can really understand them cancelling, he needs time to get better but it SUCKS for you guys. Maybe LH can do a club gig somewhere?
edited to add: Bronchitis, yep that sounds about right.

That article had to hurt. Too bad the author forgot to mention how fabulous LH was. Maybe Chicago will get lucky & LH WILL do the whole show. Sorry to hear the Denver INXS fans didn't get a great show.

Three upcoming dates??? Oh no.
I just checked on the Chicago Theatre site and there is no mention of a postponement, but I will keep checking.
Any word on the other dates?
Hmmm...where do you suppose the boys will be during their time off??

It looks like the fans in Kansas City and Minneapolis will not get to see them either but I am sure they will re-schedule the shows soon as they did for St. Charles. ;D

I didn't see the Minneapolis show on the schedule. I'll keep an eye out for the big green bus around here. Oh, I still feel so bad for you guys.
