If you're down under have a ticket to see The Rolling Stones on Saturday night, you're out of luck.

The band has canceled the show scheduled for Hanging Rock near Melbourne, Australia, because frontman Mick Jagger, 71, is suffering from a throat infection.

A note on the band's site says: "He is under strict doctor's orders to rest his vocal chords for the next few days in order to recuperate for the remainder of the tour."

Keith Richards tweeted a photo of incense, dice, a backgammon game, some other items and a note that said, "One of our men is down," but added, "All is well."

The next show is scheduled for Sydney on Nov. 12.
