UPDATE: Paramore cancel tonight's show; Hayley Williams comments on illness

UPDATE
Williams has taken to livejournal to release a statement to fans. Read it, below: 

“Hey everybody,

First of all… Salt Lake City, I am so sorry that we had to cancel our show. There aren't many things I regret more than letting our fans down. Canceling shows is a big deal to all of us and I tried so hard just to push through them but unfortunately that wasn't the smartest idea for my health. Canceling was the last resort and again I'm sorry it came down to that.

Maybe I can just quickly try explain what's going on, so you hear it straight from me. This started last week when we were meant to play Conan… And I woke up feeling really sick. I thought it was just a sore throat but didn't want to risk not being well for our own shows, so we cancelled. I stayed in and got some food and of course, caught food poisoning from it… Because, why not? Not to get all graphic on you but it was a lot like that scene in The Exorcist where she projectile pukes green and it's really violent. That ended up burning my throat which made it sore all over again. Then to make matters worse I woke up a couple of days later having gotten some sort of virus, which is what I'm still dealing with now.

And there you have it. Clearly, it has not been my week. I wish that my being sick didn't affect so many people and again, I am terribly sorry to everyone who I have let down by not being able to perform tonight.

Thanks to everyone who's sent me a get well soon message or any kind of support over the last week. So thankful that music has connected us.

See you all soon.
Hayley”

Last week, Paramore had to cancel their appearance on Conan due to frontwoman Hayley Williams' being sick. Today, they have announced that her illness will lead to further cancelations with their show tonight, May 6, in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Read the band's statement below: 

“We are sorry to announce that tonight’s show (Monday May 6) in Salt Lake City, UT at The Great Saltair will be cancelled due to Hayley still being sick.

All tickets will be refunded at point of purchase.

We apologize to all the fans in Salt Lake City and will certainly make it up to you as soon as we can.

Paramore”

The band performed two days ago in San Francisco despite Williams' continued illness. The singer expressed her appreciation for the crowd and the fact that she was still, indeed, sick in a tweet early Sunday morning:
 

Thanks San Fran for keeping me alive tonight. I'm already back in my sweatpants.. Or as I like to call them,my “cotton confidence” #sick
