Convenient Flu sidelines actors band

Billy Bob Thornton's band the Boxmasters has had to cancel the remainder of its Canadian tour with Willie Nelson because one of the musicians has the flu, according to Nelson's website.

Thornton, whose prickly interview with CBC Radio host Jian Ghomeshi became a viral video sensation and a global media story, and his band were scheduled to perform shows with Nelson in Montreal and London, Ont.

But Nelson's website said the band had to pull out because one band member and several of the crew have the flu.

A publicist for the band later confirmed to CBC News that J.D. Andrew, a guitarist in the band, has come down with the flu.

Did I say 'actor'? Gee I hope I didn't offend you Billy Bob! (Never trust anyone with two first names). I am virtually coughing in your general direction right now, I also have the flu.

Seemingly high actor has a spoiled brat attack

Now that he's had his little hissy fit, and gotten tons of publicity, almost at one million views on You tube we all know who the Boxmasters are, right? 

But does anyone care?  I don't think they will sell many albums in Canada, I know I won't be buying their albums, I don't know, nor do I care how good they are.  I suggest Willie Nelson drop this loser as an opening  act.
