(Classic Rock) Veteran rockers Status Quo have been forced to cancel six shows because of illness affecting guitarist Rick Parfitt. The band had been due to play this weekend in Croatia, where Parfitt is now receiving hospital treatment.

No details of the illness have been given, but Quo's manager Simon Porter, says: "We don't cancel shows lightly as any of our fans will tell you, but in this instance, we have no option but to follow medical advice."

The 65-year-old underwent a quadruple heart bypass in 1997 and his latest illness will force the band to miss dates in Monte Carlo, Switzerland and Germany through August 10. more on this story
