The White Stripes have cancelled their appearance at the Reading and Leeds Festivals because singer and guitarist Jack White hasn't yet fully recovered from that fracture to his left hand sustained in a car accident on 9 Jul. Organisers of the Carling Weekend events have said that the duo will return as headliners next year. No word yet on whether the Flaming Lips will save the day again.
