Olly Murs Walks Off Stage After Six Songs, Leaves Fans Fuming
Olly Murs shocked fans in Glasgow by walking off stage after six songs, citing vocal issues. Disappointed attendees were left confused after paying hefty ticket prices. Olly later apologised on Instagram, expressing regret and promising to seek medical advice.
In a surprising turn of events, pop star Olly Murs left fans in Glasgow fuming after he walked off stage mid-performance, only six songs into his set. The 40-year-old singer had just delivered his hit “Kiss Me Like You Mean It” when he abruptly announced to the huge crowd that his voice was gone. There were gasps, then silence, and then chaos ensued as he told the crowd, “I need to go now”. Not the farewell many were hoping for.
Fans had packed into the sold-out Glasgow Hydro eager to see Olly perform his greatest hits, but were left bewildered when he made the shock confession that he couldn’t continue. He explained, “This has never happened to me before, but you can hear my voice is going. I want to give you the concert you deserve, so I can’t go on.” Talk about a plot twist that wasn’t in the setlist!
As the lights came up, security started ushering the bewildered audience out the venue. And let me tell you, those ticket prices didn’t come cheap, with fans having forked out over £57.55 for the experience. It was a fair amount of dosh to be disappointed and head home so soon. Quite the anticlimactic night!
Later, Olly took to Instagram to express his regret and offer some heartfelt apologies. “I am so sorry tonight… I have never done this in 15 years,” he said. That’s a long record of sticking it out! He continued, “I may have felt a little run-down but I didn’t think I couldn’t do the show.” There goes the illusion of invincibility.
He wasn’t just apologising for the fans’ time, he felt guilty about their hard-earned cash. “You deserve the best show and me being at my best. I am so sorry from the bottom of my heart…” With a bit of concern, Olly revealed he’d be off to see a doctor. After all, it’s not just the fans’ hearts on the line here, it’s his lucrative future gigs too!
The singer has a busy weekend ahead, with performances lined up in Manchester, Birmingham, and a sold-out show at London’s O2. It’s like he’s trying to squeeze a marathon into a sprint—let’s hope his voice is up for the challenge!
This isn’t the first time Olly’s had to cancel in Glasgow; last year he pulled out supporting Take That just minutes before the doors opened. Last month, he also had to cancel gigs in Hull and Brighton due to a nasty stomach bug foiling his plans, which also affected his crew. Just a tad unlucky, eh? You could say he’s having a rough patch or maybe just needs a good slice of cake.
Our beloved Olly wrote on his Instagram regarding the cancellations, “I hate that I have to write this & really sorry to let you guys down.” Gotta respect the honesty there, Olly! He added that the gastroenteritis bug had been wrecking havoc among his team. Talk about the not-so-glamorous side of touring!
Fans, while disappointed, are hoping for swift reschedule news, as Olly is determined to get back on stage as soon as he can. Hang in there, Olly’s crew!
In summary, Olly Murs has had a rocky time with his recent performances, leaving fans in Glasgow disappointed after walking off stage and ending a concert after just six songs. He has sincerely apologised for the situation, expressing regret for not delivering the full concert experience, and is seeking medical advice. Let’s hope he gets well soon and comes back stronger for his upcoming shows!
