Runrig have been forced to cancel their upcoming European tour after guitarist Malcolm Jones collapsed at Edinburgh Waverley railway station on Sunday. He is currently recovering in hospital.
A statement on the band’s website reads: “We regret to announce that guitarist Malcolm Jones has been taken ill and as a result we have been forced to cancel the forthcoming tour of Germany, Austria and Switzerland”.
“We are deeply sorry for the short notice and obvious inconvenience that this will cause. Ticket holders should contact their vendor for refunds. We will give you more information as soon as possible. However, in the meantime we are sure you will join us in wishing Malcolm a speedy recovery”.
