"I have struggled through the last few nights, hoping that I could simply work through this, but today I felt so unwell I had to see a doctor," Rhodes says in the statement. "We absolutely hate to disappoint our incredibly loyal fans and cancel a show at the last minute, but unfortunately the doctor has strongly recommended that this is what we do on this occasion?-- so it is with enormous regret that we are unable to perform in Atlantic City tonight."
The band says that it is hoping to reschedule the show within the next few days.
