Jones apologises for gig cancellation

Sir Tom Jones has apologised to fans for cancelling two concerts due to illness.

The Welsh musician is being treated in hospital for a bacterial infection, and pulled out of a performance at Stansted Park in Chichester on Wednesday. Sir Tom. 78, was also unable to take to the stage at Chester Racecourse last night.

He posted on Twitter: “I am so sorry for cancelling last night’s show in Chichester, it’s the worse feeling having to let down everyone who was coming as well as everyone who is involved in the event.”
