Arch Enemy esiintyi ilman laulajaa Alissa White-Gluzin sairastumisen vuoksi

Metalliyhtye Arch Enemy joutui erikoiseen tilanteeseen tiistaina 3. joulukuuta Tijuanassa, Meksikossa järjestetyllä keikalla, kun se joutui esiintymään ilman laulajaansa Alissa White-Gluzia. White-Gluz sairastui ennen keikkaa, eikä kyennyt esiintymään, mutta keikkaa ei kuitenkaan peruttu. White-Gluzia ei myöskään korvattu lavalla, mikä johti siihen, että muu yhtye veti kokonaisen keikan suurimmilta osin instrumentaalisena.

White-Gluz itse pahoittelee sattunutta hetki sitten julkaistussa Facebook-postauksessaan, jossa hän ei myöskään peittele tilaansa.

Thank you so much for your understanding and well-wishes. I feel extremely guilty that I cannot give a normal show because you guys absolutely deserve it. I insisted that we should reschedule but that was apparently not possible. This might be TMI but since the news is out already I just want these amazing fans in Mexico to know how serious this was and that it absolutely is killing me to not be able to give you 100%. Trust me – I have broken my ribs on stage and not missed a show, I have performed through bronchitis, complete laryngitis that took months to heal – everything. This is different.

I had a doctor come to my hotel bed two days in a row and she said “she is experiencing a total collapse.“

My body is so exhausted that I have a hard time walking. I’m confused. Dizzy. Shaking.

A bacterial infection lodged in my ears and then aggressively spread to all the soft tissues of my upper body. Ears, eyes, throat, lungs, nose… I had pus leaking out of my EYES. Blood leaking out of my nose. I was freezing and sweating simultaneously and had a fever of 102F for over a week. And yes, I did several shows in this state. I was going into shock.

It was an infection that was probably lingering for a long time and finally started winning- my body was losing and it was happening quickly. I think if I didn’t get the antibiotics when I did I would be hospitalized or dead right now.
