Dance star Moby is celebrating after coming down with a bout of flu - because it means he can take a rare break from touring.

The busy DJ works 12 months of the year, and regularly jets around the world for gigs. So he wasn't sorry to succumb to a bout of illness, brought on by the cold weather in New York, where he lives.

Moby writes online, "With the flu I get to cancel everything on my schedule and lie in bed. It's sort of like a mini-vacation, albeit one attended by fever and aches and general disgustingness."

However he plans to be back on his feet next week to travel to Washington D.C. to watch Barack Obama inaugurated as U.S. president, adding, "I'm headed to D.C. in a few days for the inauguration, and hopefully Mr. Flu will have abated by then."
