Dark Tranquillity Cancel European Tour

by | Nov 15, 2012

Dark Tranquillity have been forced to cancel their upcoming European tour.

“The main tour promoter has failed in making the necessary practical and logistical arrangements needed for the tour to happen,” the band stated. “Due to the lack of reliable information and substandard promotion, ticket sales have been surprisingly low. We can’t just embark on a one-month, five-band trek risking to be met by closed venues or not being 100% sure that the necessary arrangements for the shows even to happen are in place. The fact that Warbringer had to cancel didn’t help the situation.”

The band added, “We are truly sorry about this situation.”
