Duran Duran cancel show in Nice, France due to family bereavement
Duran Duran have been forced to cancel their upcoming show in Nice, France, originally scheduled to take place on Thursday 12 June, 2008, because of the unexpected death of keyboardist Nick Rhodes’ father at the end of last week.
The band members are extremely sorry to disappoint fans, but hope that everyone will understand that only such tragic circumstances would keep them from a performance.
Unfortunately, due to the band’s European tour schedule and the availability of the venue there is no possibility to move the band’s South of France date - but they hope to be able to return on their next Continental run.
All tickets are fully refundable at point of purchase.

I hope this doesn't turn into an "I TOLD YOU SO" thread!
Let's just all continue to give sympathy to Nick and his family at this time . . . and remember WHAT the issue is. The loss of his father.

Another thread has been started in regards to condolences. We will be sure that they are passed on to Nick and ask that you put them there to make it a bit easier to keep track of.
We are all saddened by this loss and respectful extend our thoughts to his family and those that knew him.

In my opinion, 1 day is not enough for family bereavement.
I am sorry that the show was cancelled but i fully understand why.
