Sick Mick Sinks Stones' Concert

British rock 'n' roll band the Rolling Stones suspended a concert in the Spanish tourist resort town of Benidorm after 60-year-old lead singer Mick Jagger fell ill with laryngitis, organizers said Tuesday.

The concert set for later in the day was part of the Stones' 'Forty Licks' tour, and had been expected to attract some 30,000 spectators at the Foeits Sports Stadium.

Spain's private news agency Europa Press said the concert would be rescheduled for Sept. 19. It was not immediately possible to confirm the date with organizers.

The Stones have already played sold-out shows in Madrid, Barcelona and Bilbao in Spain as part of the tour.
