No Mars Volta

Unfortunately last night's show by The Mars Volta was cancelled due to vocalist Omar Rodruiguez-Lopez being sick. For once the ticket agency earned their 'booking fee' by phoning me on my mobile just before I set out, saving me a wasted journey into town. The gig is supposedly going to be rescheduled, presumably some time in the new year.

In 25 years, this is the first gig I've even had tickets for that's been cancelled. I guess this is one benefit of not being a Guns and Roses Fan. Nearest one was Fish about five years ago, when he canned the rest of the tour due to voice problems immediately after the night I saw him.
