Nachdem wir euch zuletzt regelmäßig über Zusagen informiert haben, gibt es hier ein Update der Absagen, zusammen mit den Gründen Silverchair - Gesundheitszustand des Sängers (siehe Kommentare) Starsailor - James wird Vater Ende Juli und bleibt bei der Familie Alkaline Trio - ziehen es vor, die Vans Warped Tour in den Staaten zu spielen Sparta - Albumrelease in den Staaten und deshalb auch die ganze Tour verschoben Tomahawk - ohne Nennung von Gründen Such A Surge - aus privaten/persönlichen Gründen
Mit Badly Drawn Boy gibt es aber auch eine neue Zusage zu vermelden.
(bizarre.de) Silverchair sagen tatsächlich ab: Das ist ein Schlag! Wir kümmern uns um adäquaten Ersatz! Hier ein paar offizielle Worte:
"I am truly sorry that I am not able to do the touring we had planned for so long", said Daniel Johns. "I apologize for the inconvenience these cancellations will cause. I am doing everything humanly possible to try and get well but lately things have just kept getting worse."
"These cancellations are a major disappointment to the band", said the group’s manager, John Watson. "The guys were really looking forward to finally getting out there and playing shows. However, the rapid decline in Daniel’s health over the last two weeks in particular has simply made this physically impossible for him."
"Silverchair know that their fans and some other people will feel very disappointed that the band is unable to tour for the foreseeable future but those feelings are nothing compared to the deep disappointment and frustration which Daniel is feeling right now. Daniel has spent the better part of three years creating the songs for this new album. These cancellations will clearly mean that less people will get to hear the new music in which he has invested so much time and effort. It’s really upsetting for him and for everybody involved."
