They would never dream of canceling Chicago I'm not sure I agree. From all indications, INXS is treating this as THEIR tour and they are calling all the shots - including when/where any LH meet and greets take place. INXS has no special tie to Chicago, so if their boy is sick, I don't think they would hesitate to postpone.

Yeah, I was thinking about maybe an LH stopover in St. Louis at a small club would be incredible!! I'm sure it's way too much to hope for though............

I wondered how long before someone got sick. Marty had mentioned his feeling especially tired and sore and we've seen Marty's energy levels! Think of all the traveling, plus all the unaccustomed germs from new people, plus they are all exhausted from the schedule. They've been on the go every day!
Even though I don't particularly like JD, I do feel badly for fans who have waited, traveled, and likely booked rooms and air fare to see the shows..
Bummer..

I hope three shows will be enough for JD to get better. I had Bronchitis last July and it took at least 2 weeks for me to feel well enough to get out of bed and have a normal day and it was 6 weeks before I had any energy back. That was the sickest I have ever been. I hope he has a mild case and gets better soon so the rest of the tour can go on as planned.
Sorry to everyone who has to wait longer.

Suzanne, me too! Work is so freakin' messed up and stressful right now--I was SO looking forward to a wild and crazy, fun night out with Lovehammers AND Hammerheads! Guess we'll have to wait till the end of the month now. Looks like it might be rescheduled for the 28th.

From INXS website: www.inxs.com/news/news.php?uid=2030INXS has regrettably been forced to reschedule three Midwest shows this week - two of which are sold out - because lead singer J.D. Fortune is battling a case of bronchitis. All three dates have been rescheduled and tickets for the original dates will be honoured on the new dates. Patrons unable to attend the rescheduled performances may obtain a refund at point of purchase. Fan Club members who participated in a Fan Club presale for these dates will be notified with further details shortly. RESCHEDULED DATES: St. Charles, MO - Family Arena NEW DATE: TUES. FEB 28 (originally scheduled for Feb. 1) Kansas City, MO - Midland Theatre NEW DATE: WED. MAR. 1 (originally scheduled for Feb. 2) Minneapolis, MN - Orpheum Theatre NEW DATE: THUR. MAR. 2 (originally scheduled for Feb. 3) "The doctor has just told J.D. and me that it is best not to take a risk by performing because it could damage his voice," says INXS's manager Martha Troup. "He has advised J.D. that he rest for the next few days." The INXS tour will resume on Saturday, Feb. 4 in Chicago.
