Florence + the Machine has cancelled their tour including a Dublin date after the lead singer broke her foot.
Florence Welch fell over during a performance at the 02 Arena in London on Friday night. X-rays, which came back today, showed she has a broken foot.
As a result, the rest of the Dance Fever tour has been cancelled. The tour included a November 30 gig at the 3Arena.

The popular singer took to Instagram to share the bad news with her fans. The post was accompanied by a picture of a stage with what appeared to be drops of blood.
She said: “I’m so sorry to say that after an X-ray it seems I was dancing on a broken foot last night.
“It is not in my nature to postpone a show, and certainly not a UK tour, but I’m in pain and, as dancers know, dancing on an injury is not a good idea. And have been told not to perform to avoid further damage.
“Please hang on to your tickets. We are working our hardest to reschedule these dates for next year and we will let you know as soon as possible. I’m heartbroken as the Dance Fever tour has been my favourite show we have ever put on.
“I love you so much, and I’m so sorry to anyone who is disappointed. My heart is aching. I can’t wait to be back on my feet and back in your arms.”
