Bad news from the OMD camp:

We are sorry to inform you that Malcolm [Holmes, drummer] was taken ill during last nights [7/20] show in Toronto. He’s currently being treated for heat exhaustion in hospital but is recovering well. Sadly however we have to cancel the remaining shows of the year (including Rewind festival). Please accept our sincere apologies, we really appreciate your understanding at this very difficult time. We will give you more news on Malcolm as and when.

OMD (who played NYC last week) followed up their initial message with, “we’ve been to see Malcolm and we’re delighted to say he’s doing well and hopes to fly home on Tuesday. thank you for your kind messages and support.” Get well, Malcolm and take it easy!
