Florence tour is off after singer breaks her foot
Florence + The Machine have been forced to postpone the rest of their UK tour after lead singer Florence Welch discovered she was performing on a broken foot.
The indie rock band kicked off their Dance Fever tour at the Accorhotels Arena in Paris on November 14 and had performed in Cardiff and one show in London's O2 Arena of their planned 11 dates, which included Glasgow, before it had to be cancelled.
Ahead of the band's second scheduled London show on Saturday, Welsh revealed the news about her injury on twitter, saying she was "heartbroken" as it had been her favourite show they have ever put on.
She wrote: "I'm so sorry to say that after an X-ray it seems I was dancing on a broken foot last night.
"It is not in my nature to postpone a show, and certainly not a UK tour, but I'm in pain and, as dancers know, dancing on an injury is not a good idea. I have been told not to perform to avoid further damage.”
