GWAR have canceled their January European “Return of the World Maggot” tour after a number of promoters pulled out of shows due to low ticket sales.
Says GWAR’s Dave Brockie, “Several of the promoters were alarmed by the seemingly low ticket sales. Instead of sticking it out and getting huge walk up crowds with amazing GWAR shows, which is exactly what would have happened, but they decided to start pulling the plug on shows anyway. It got to the point where we had lost so many shows; it just didn’t make sense to do this tour. We were going to completely eat shit, money-wise and we can’t do that.”
