Gold-certified alternative metal band Helmet‘s planned fall tour with Local H has been scrapped amid financial concerns. That trek was announced last month with plans for it to run from September 19th through to October 05th. However, a statement the band shared with promoters on the fate of the tour reads as follows:
“Helmet regrets to announce we are having to cancel the upcoming US tour with Local H. The cancellation is caused by a mix of significant financial concerns and lower than expected ticket sales which is a common problem for many artists this year. We look forward to getting back out on the road in 2025. In the meantime, our European Tour this November goes ahead as planned.
‘As much as we’d love to be getting back out on the road and playing, this one was not lining up well for us. We’re excited about our upcoming November/December European tour which is looking great and we will reconvene in 2025 for more US dates.’ – Page Hamilton“
