Consisting of Royel Maddell and Otis Pavlovic, footage that was circulated on TikTok appeared to show Royel collapsing to the ground mid-set. Members of the on-stage live band rushed to help as Royel stumbled backwards with his guitar still on him. He appeared to fall on his back as gasps could be heard ringing out across the shocked crowd. The band are yet to address what happened to Royel but concert-goers appeared to suggest that his terrifying fall came just 15 minutes into the band's performance. Now, the band have broken their silence to confirm they are pulling the plug on their impending gigs following the scary incident. Writing on their Instagram account, they confirmed that Royel was suffering from a virus as they said: "We are really sorry to say that we need to cancel our set at Lowlands + Pukkelpop festival as Roy has been unwell with a virus since last night's show in Hamburg. "We were really looking forward to playing for you and hope we can see you at one of our other shows soon. "Thank you for all your support always [pink heart emoji] Roy + Otis." The group have been working together for the past six years but have only found mainstream success in recent years. In January 2024 they were named as an Artist to Watch by the Grammy's. Their viral cover of Sophie Ellis-Bextor's Murder on the Dancefloor became a chart hit in Australia.

Edinburgh festivals – our best reviews from the second week

Our reviewers have been busy out and about at the Fringe and the International Festival this week. And they have found some four (and five) star gems. All of our Festival coverage can be read over here. Ahir Shah: Work in Progress Ahir Shah has become an established Fringe performer. After a series of nominations, he finally won the main Comedy Award in 2023. On the back of his Fringe successes, he's become a regular media figure, featuring on BBC Radio 4 (Ahir Shah's 7 Blunders of the World) and also has had HBO and Netflix specials. This year Shah is performing a limited series of shows (14 -24), advertised as a work in progress but very much on course to becoming a fully realised show. Read more here. Orpheus and Eurydice Despite the richness of the English language, I think there are not enough superlatives to praise the creation of this rendition of Gluck's Orpheus and Eurydice. From the very opening where we see the superb funambulist as Eurydice descend twisting into the underworld hanging from a harness to the final dénouement, the staging was outstanding, the music perfection, the singing immensely moving, and the acrobatics stunning. Read more here Wellpark Wanderer It is often said that Scottish performers are hard to find in the Festival and Fringe. Writing in 1976, the historian Owen Dudley Edwards suggested that 'there is little of Edinburgh, and even less of Scotland in the Festival'. Many see the Festival and Fringe as something imposed from outside on the people of Edinburgh. Such narratives persist. It's also widely argued that working class voices are marginalised within the Fringe. Especially, in the sphere of comedy, the Fringe is often seen as London-centric and dominated by middle class voices and perspectives. There are, fortunately, exceptions.

Given up on Waiting For Godot? Never fear, you'll have a blast at Hingin' Oan Fir Googsie. Running for four more nights only, John McColl's new play at Braw Venues on George Street opened to much hearty laughter and rapturous applause from a largely local audience, an element of the warm reception no doubt down to the presence of Braveheart and River City legend Jimmy Chisholm, leading the cast as Ghillie. Read more here. Flamenco Guitar Odyssey If you're a bit worn out by all the noise and crowds of the festival city, why not take a break to visit Alba Flamenca on East Crosscauseway and enjoy some beautiful music? Philip Adie started life in Aberdeen, perhaps not somewhere we generally associate with flamenco, but for the past 25 years he has lived in mainland Europe, first studying under flamenco master Paco Pena in Rotterdam, then moving to Seville where he works as a flamenco guitarist. Now he's here in Edinburgh to share some tunes and tell us more about the origins and styles of this wonderful music. Read more here. Like this: Like Related

Around 328,000 people travelled with ScotRail on Friday August 8, when Liam and Noel Gallagher and their band took to the stage for the first of three sellout gigs at Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh. That total was up by almost a fifth (19%) compared with the same day last year. THANK YOU EDINBURGH 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿#OasisLive25 — Oasis (@oasis) August 14, 2025 Meanwhile, a total of 327,000 travellers took to the rails on Saturday, with passenger numbers for that day 12% higher than the same date in 2024, up 12% on 2024. ScotRail added that these days were the busiest its services had been since December 14 last year, when the festive season was in full swing. With the third Oasis concert taking place in the capital on Tuesday August 12, ScotRail said it had carried a total of 1,995,000 people over the week commencing Friday August 8. David Ross, chief operating officer at the rail operator said: 'This week once again confirms that ScotRail is increasingly the travel mode of choice for people going to large events in Scotland. 'The fact that we've just delivered the busiest week of 2025 so far shows how important large concerts and events are to our business and the Scottish economy. 'Our frontline staff once again delivered an excellent service for almost two million customers who chose to travel with ScotRail.'
