This is heartbreaking news. My husband and I had tickets for Delhi. While I understand health issues are serious, the timing is terrible. Some of us had booked flights and hotels. The refund is fine, but it doesn't cover the non-refundable travel costs. A bit more advance notice would have been appreciated.

Band members are not young anymore. We should respect their health. Better to cancel than have a subpar show or risk their well-being. Get well soon, Scorpions! India will wait for you. 🤘

Shillong show cancelled... feeling so sad for all the fans in the Northeast. Big acts rarely come here, and when they finally do, this happens. Hope the promoters try to bring them back specifically for this region.

At least BookMyShow is processing automatic refunds. That's a relief. Last time an event got cancelled with another platform, it was a nightmare to get my money back. Focus on recovery, Scorpions. We'll rock with you next time!

Unfortunate, but these things happen in the world of live music. The key is how it's handled. The communication seems clear and the refund policy is straightforward. Wishing the band a speedy recovery.
