Decemberists cancel tour
Monday, November 5th, 2007
Due to what apprears to be a serious illness with one of the band members the Decemberists have canceled all of their remaining tour dates which include several European and North American cities and, sadly, the three-night tour wrap-up at the Crystal Ballroom here in Portland. A message on their web site includes the following…
It saddens us to disappoint our fans. We hope everybody understands it
is only because of an extreme situation that we had to cancel a tour
we’ve all been excited about doing since the idea was originally
hatched.
Our deepest apologies but at this time no plans are being made to
reschedule the dates. Ticket holders should seek refunds at point of
purchase.
Yours,
The Decemberists
