Ghost<\/a> canceled their Mexico City show last night (Sept. 23)\u00a0minutes before they were set to take the stage. The venue shared a message with the crowd and then the band posted a statement on social media revealing\u00a0that Tobias Forge<\/a> had fallen ill.<\/p>\n The concert was the first of three that Ghost had scheduled to play at the Palacio de los Deportes in Mexico City. A video on social media from last night shows the crowd waiting for Ghost’s set to start as an announcement played on the venue speakers and appeared on the monitors.<\/p>\n Ghost shared a\u00a0statement of their own on social media confirming the cancelation.<\/p>\n “It is with deep regret that we must inform you the Ghost show tonight, Sept. 23, has been canceled. Tobias Forge is suffering from food poisoning, which makes it impossible for the band to perform,” the statement read, adding that the shows scheduled for tonight and tomorrow were still to go on as planned.<\/p>\n It doesn’t seem as though Ghost will reschedule the performance \u2014 the message stated ticket holders will receive refunds to their original point of purchase.<\/p>\n The majority of\u00a0fans who commented on the post expressed support and extended well wishes to the frontman. Others expressed frustration that the cancelation was made at such short notice and after they booked travel and lodging to be there.<\/p>\n “There’s nothing wrong with cancelling a show, what’s wrong it’s doing it 10 minutes before it’s supposed to start,” one person wrote.<\/p>\n “Get well soon, Tobias.\u00a0We understand. To the fans, please do not blame him for the cancellation. The effects of food poisoning can hit out of nowhere thus, it may be difficult to tell in advance. Also, he doesn\u2019t cancel shows lightly. Remember, he has performed shows when he has had a sore throat\u2026but it gets to a point. Health of the artist should be prioritized over all and I believe they made the right call,” another fan commented.<\/p>\n READ MORE:\u00a0The ‘Big 4’ of Masked Rock + Metal Bands<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Read the full post below.
