Illness has caused cancellations and rescheduled shows for a couple of big-name acts playing the Strip this week. The Doobie Brothers had to shut down February 14, 15 and 18 performances at the Venetian Theatre and have rescheduled those shows for November. And Gwen Stefani canceled four concerts including February 14, citing illness. She's expected to resume her residency at Zappos Theater on February 15.
