Duran Duran cancels NJ concert

• email

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) — The illness of a band member has forced the last-minute cancellation of rock group Duran Duran's concert at the Revel resort in Atlantic City.

The casino said keyboardist Nick Rhodes has been sick for the past few days and saw a doctor Saturday who advised him not to perform Saturday night. Rhodes said doctors told him he could be suffering from exhaustion.

The casino said the band is considering playing the show in the next few days, so fans should hold onto their tickets and wait for an official announcement of when a re-scheduled show will be held.
