Cranberries show postponed

JAKARTA (JP): The Cranberries, a popular Irish band, have
postponed their Jakarta concert scheduled for June 28 due to an
injury suffered by the lead singer Dolores O'Riordan.

According to a statement made available to The Jakarta Post,
the singer was in an accident during the band's tour of
Australia.

The singer suffered a torn knee ligament which made it
difficult for her to stand by the end of a show on June 5 in
Canberra.

O'Riordan had to go back to London to undergo an extensive
physical examination.

The release stated that the band plans to continue its Free to
Decide World Tour '96-'97 and that the management will reschedule
the tour as soon as it gets O'Riordan's medical results.

The group was scheduled to perform in Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta
and Singapore this month after performances in the Philippines,
Thailand, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan, New Zealand and Australia.

In Jakarta the group was scheduled to perform at the Senayan
Indoor Tennis Stadium in Central Jakarta. (yns)
