Spandau Ballet's Tony Hadley was rushed to hospital moments before he was due to take to the stage, forcing him to cancel the gig at the last minute.
He met some of his fans for a meet and greet on Sunday evening after the soundcheck, but appeared uncomfortable. When he returned to take to the stage, Tony told organisers he wasn't well. He was then taken to hospital.Michelle McTernan, who was in charge of PR for the event told theBelfast Telegraph : "We had to do what was right by him and he was taken to hospital, and his crew have all gone with him, to stick together. We hope he gets better soon.
Tony was due to perform hits from his solo career as well as from his time as Spandau Ballet's frontman. Earlier this year, Tony revealed to The Mirror that he would never reunite with his former bandmates. Tony, who sang on classic hits True and Gold, said: "You could offer me all the tea in China and I wouldn’t get back with them. There’s no way. I’m pretty easy-going, it takes a lot to get to that point but once you’ve pushed me and crossed that line, that’s it. I’m done.
