Catfish And The Bottlemen make waves online after cancelling their Dublin gig last minute! Find out what happened! 🎸💔

In a twist that left fans tuning out and tuning back in for updates, Welsh indie rock sensations Catfish And The Bottlemen cancelled their highly anticipated gig in Dublin on Saturday, much to the surprise and dismay of concert-goers. Just as excitement bubbled over at the RDS Simmonscourt, the band dropped the bombshell announcement: a sudden cancellation prompted by an ‘artist’s illness'. Only 15 minutes before doors were due to open, MCD Productions shared the unfortunate news via social media. Talk about a dramatic turn of events!

The cancellation ignited waves of fury among fans who had eagerly awaited the band's return to the stage. Numerous concert-goers poured into the venue, ready to let loose in anticipation of the indie anthems they love. Yet, their hopes were dashed in an instant as they received the news on their phones. One disgruntled fan shared their feelings, posting this is like “the worst cliffhanger in band history.” With refunds promised, many fans were left with a hollowness more profound than just missing out on a night of music – it was a full-blown emotional rollercoaster.

Interestingly, this wasn't the band's first run-in with illness; just days prior, they had faced concerns from fans about the ambitious nature of their recent performances. After raising eyebrows with a packed tour schedule, it seems their commitment to bringing high-energy shows has taken a toll, leading to this unfortunate and unexpected cancellation. The band expressed heartfelt apologies in their statement, highlighting that nothing is more important than the health of their members and crew, urging fans to stay safe and keep dreaming of full-throttle concerts in the future.

As fans process their disappointment, it's worth noting that such incidents aren't uncommon in the world of live music. Bands often wrestle with the pressure of performing, occasionally leading to last-minute changes in schedule. While it’s a tough pill to swallow for those who had their hearts set on a night of rock 'n' roll, the hope is that catfish will return more rejuvenated than ever!
