Napalm Death had to play their April 14 show at the Rialto Theatre in Tucson, AZ as a three-piece after vocalist Mark “Barney” Greenway fell ill. Greenway has since assured fans he’s doing alright, but caught some mystery stomach bug at some point that preventing him from getting on stage.
“Hello everybody, sincere apologies to whoever came to the Tucson gig last night,” wrote Greenway of his absence. “I contracted some mystery gut thing on the morning, and was in enough discomfort to stop me from being able to do even a couple of lines of vocals last night. It never feels great to be missing gigs, but the other guys gave it more than a good go as usual. Sorry again. Lots of love.”
Napalm Death added: “[Barney] is all better now … It’s never easy in these situations. Tonight we are back on track. Thank you for understanding.”
