Whitechapel have been denied entry into Canada and will be missing the planned Calgary, Edmonton and Regina stops of their ongoing tour with DevilDriver, Carnifex, Revocation and more. As Whitechapel guitarist Zach Householder notes, this is the first time the band have been denied entry into the country. The band didn’t specify as to why they were refused passage.
Update – May 29th 1:18pm:
It looks like there was some grumpy border guards as tourmates Fit For An Autopsy have also been denied entry as well. They said of that:
“Unfortunately Fit for an autopsy has been turned away at the Canadian border. We tried our best, after getting turned away last night, by coming back today to speak to someone who could “help”. Only to be turned away again. Sorry to all our friends and fan who made plans to see us, we hope to figure out a way to be back soon.”
