Four hours before it was scheduled to start, Rolling Stones cancelled their October 27 concert in Atlantic City, New Jersey due to a sore throat problem developed by lead singer Mick Jagger.
This has caused "heartache and anguish" to the fans of the famous rock band – at least to one Rosalie Druyan from Brooklyn who immediately filed a class action lawsuit in the Manhattan Supreme Court.
The lawsuit accused the rock legends of fraud, specifically for acting in bad faith claiming that, "Jagger sought medical attention before the concert and knew he would not perform but did not disclose that in time for ticket holders to cancel travel reservations."
As a result, it had cost thousands of fans incredible sums of money on nonrefundable travel and hotel expenses. Druyan's tickets to the concert cost $575. Her hotel reservation at the posh Trump Taj Mahal cost $300.
Bringing in all "heartache and anguish" -- notwithstanding Jagger's sore throat -- the class action lawsuit is worth $51 million.
