The TLC tour has been bitten by the flu bug. The duo informed fans on Monday (May 14) that they’ve been forced to cancel that night’s planned show and postpone three other tour dates in Canada this week after member T-Boz (as well as several other tour members) have fallen ill.
“We deeply regret to inform you that we must cancel the upcoming date,” they said of the Monday night gig slated to take place in the Avenir Centre in Moncton, New Brunswick. “Unfortunately, a few members of our tour, including T-boz, have fallen ill with the flu. As a result, she has lost her voice. Doctors have advised her not to perform this week,” read the statement from the group that also features singer Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas.
“We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause,” they added. “Your support means the world to us, and we look forward to the opportunity to perform for you in the near future. We love you and will see you soon.”
The affected dates included a Thursday (May 16) show at Caesars Windsor in Windsor, Ontario, a gig on Friday (May 17) at the Fallsview Casino in Niagara Falls, Ontario (which has been rescheduled for Oct. 3) and a May 18 concert at the Memorial Centre in Peterborough, Ontario.
At press time the group had not announced when, or if the other three shows will be rescheduled.
TLC are the subject of a new Netflix documentary, TLC Forever, and earlier this year they celebrated the 25th anniversary of their landmark Fanmail album, which features extended remixes of Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit “No Scrubs” and “U in Me.”
