Storm Ashley forces cancellation of Scouting for Girls gig

Band promises to postpone telling Manx audience 'see you soon'

Indie pop band Scouting for Girls have been forced to cancel tonight's gig on the Isle of Man. 

The three-piece were due to perform at the Villa Marina in Douglas this evening (20 October). 

But Storm Ashley - and the travel disruption it's causing - has put a stop to that.

Their flight was cancelled from London Heathrow this morning.  

Roy had previously told Manx Radio he was excited to return to the Island thanks to previous positive experiences.

Tickets will remain valid for the rescheduled show.
