Mentana cancels 4 shows after Robin-joël Cool accident
Robin-joël cool was injured in a gardening accident and Mentana canceled the first four shows of its summer tour. The group said he is doing well, but he must rest his voice until August.
Mentana Facebook Message
Mentana posted the notice on its Facebook page and listed the canceled performances as Francos de Montréal, Festival en chanson de Petite-Vallée, Rythme de Tremblant and Blainville. The group wrote: "Suite à un incident aussi imprévu qu’abracadabrant, nous devons malheureusement annuler les quatre premiers spectacles de notre tournée d’été."
It also said: "Rassurez-vous, tout le monde va bien. Disons simplement que Robin, fidèle à lui-même, ne fait jamais rien comme tout le monde… En jardinant, il est tombé le larynx directement sur le rebord d’une brouette. On dirait une joke… si au moins c’en était une !!"
Voice Rest Until August
An ORL doctor ordered him to rest his sung voice until August, and Mentana said it is working to rebook the dates as soon as possible. For indoor shows, ticket holders will be contacted or directly refunded.
The group also said: "Nous avons très hâte de vous retrouver pour le reste de la tournée en août." It added that the mishap could probably inspire a future song.
Bonsoir Bonsoir Role
The notice leaves one practical issue unresolved for readers who follow his work beyond the tour: the source says it is not yet known whether the accident will also affect his role as chroniqueur at Bonsoir Bonsoir. For now, the immediate change is limited to the first four summer performances, with rescheduling and refunds already under way.
