Steve Newall: Flicks.co.nz editor on Jelly Roll cancelling his Auckland show - The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin

US country singer Jelly Roll says it broke his heart to have to cancel his Auckland show last night due to illness.

Some concert-goers - who had travelled from all over New Zealand - were already lining up at Western Springs when the news broke, just hours before it was set to start.

Jelly Roll said he's probably missed three shows in the last decade and prides himself on showing up, but he just couldn't do it this time.

Flicks.co.nz editor Steve Newall recommended some alternatives for out-of-towners looking for entertainment.
