The Fall regrets to cancel the show in Newcastle on Thursday 23rd February at Boiler Shop, this is due to lead singer Mark E. Smith contracting a serious case of influenza flu coupled with a chest infection of which both are highly contagious. The Fall promise to fulfil this engagement just as soon as Mark E. Smith is well enough too, between 4/5 weeks. The Fall wish to apologise to all our devout Newcastle and Gateshead followers.
