Lies and damn lies
 

'It's been a rough start to the tour' - his most critically acclaimed in years.

'That's the 5th of 8 shows he's cancelled or postponed'

I suggest we head over there and give these idiots a reality check, no?

I added my comments. It irritates me that they can get away with such lies. I should be used to it be now though. it is generally the way that the media operates

My comment may have been a little sarcastic but it's so stupid I didn't think it deserved my time ranting!

I'd like to bet that Ultimate Classic Rock swiped the story from Rolling Stone, which is where the original misinformation looks to have come from:

I think Billy Dukes misinterpreted something. It's indeed the number 5 show out of the 8 UK shows that has had to be postponed but I think he probably thought it was the fifth show to be postponed/cancelled when he obviously read what happened himself. It's a bit shoddy "journalism" as if to say we only got info from Meat's Facebook which is not quite true. Capital FM Arena used a good part of the staff on sight to start informing people (they went over to all the carparks etc which is no mean feat in that crappy city).

So it's RJ CUBARRUBIA's fault.
What a funny name.
Billy Dukes, stop reading what Cubarrubia writes.

Absolutely - it was the fifth of eight shows, it's just very badly worded. Sadly our journalists don't appear to have a grasp of basic English!

Added my two pence.

Perhaps it was meant to say "the fifth of the eight shows in England" ?? ... I don't like stories like this because while good folks go on to defend... there's always some negative person who comes on... and then there's the war of words and next thing you know... it's there forever on the internet... I'll pull up a story five years from now... and this article and comments will pop up ... Shame ...

Even if 'fifth of eight' was what they meant to say, the use of the word 'another' clearly is meant to imply its not the first postponement of the tour. Come to think of it so does 'cancellation or postponement'. Most aggravating of all is the 'rough start to the tour' line when the praise for this run has been near universal.
