Eyehategod‘s trip down under has been scuttled with the band offering the following statement on the failed Australian tour:
“Due to poor planning by the Australian booking agent, Eyehategod are sorry to say our Australian tour is now cancelled. We were left at the airport without our flights booked and then were expected to pay for them out of pocket an hour before boarding time.
We were literally left standing with passports in hand but no way to travel. Many, many apologies to our Australian friends and fans. We will be back as soon as we can. Please understand this is not our fault. Eyehategod loves Australia and were super excited to come back over.”
Things were less professional over at the bands Facebook with the group calling out a promoter and the man in question responding to defend himself in the comments. Last minute U.S. shows are expected to be booked in place of the cancelled events while current dates for the band include:
01/22 Reno, NV – Jub Jubs
01/23 San Francisco, CA – Brick And Mortar
01/24 Oakland, CA – Oakland Metro
01/25 Seattle, WA – The Highline
01/26 Denver, CO – The Bluebird Theater
