Fleetwood Mac is postponing the remainder of its spring dates, due to Steve Nicks dealing with a case of the flu. The news comes only days after announcing that the band would be subbing for the Rolling Stones at the New Orleans Jazz Fest after the Stones themselves had to postpone their spring dates due to Mick Jagger‘s heart procedure. Rolling Stone reported Fleetwood Mac had previously been forced to scrap its Boston and Philly concerts. Make-up dates for the Mac shows are expected to be announced soon.

A statement concerning Fleetwood Mac’s tour was released, saying:

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.
