A bout of gastroenteritis has been described as "the most expensive poisoning in the music history of Belarus," after Dave Gahan, the singer from electro-pop band Depeche Mode, took ill just two hours before a major gig.
The Minsk Arena performance had to be cancelled at the last minute, with 7,000 disappointed fans urged to keep their tickets in case the show is rescheduled.
The food poisoning occurred during a tour of eastern Europe, with the next performances scheduled for tonight in Kiev, Ukraine and then Warsaw, Poland tomorrow evening.
Intriguingly, one of Depeche Mode's many hits is a song called "Shake the Disease" - something fans will be hoping Gahan is able to do quickly.
Car sharing disruptor Uber has marked another milestone this week, with a driver in Los Angeles helping to deliver the baby of one of his customers.
Erica and Niv Davidovich used the ride-hailing app on Fri after Erica started having contractions.
She told local broadcaster KABC-TV her first three children came after long labours, so she was sure she had plenty of time to get to the hospital.
However that wasn't the case, with the couple quickly asking the driver to pull over, where Niv delivered a healthy baby boy in the back seat of the vehicle - and the driver later delivering an Uber onesie (like the one pictured) to the happy family.
