KILLSWITCH ENGAGE FORCED TO CANCEL TUCSON, AZ SHOW ON MARCH 4

03/04 @ 01:14AM

Killswitch Engage will have no choice but to cancel their upcoming performance in Tucson, Arizona on Thursday, March 4, 2010.  Fill in vocalist Phil Labonte of All That Remains will absolutely need this day to rest and recover his voice from what has been a very grueling three week touring schedule in which he has been asked to perform a wealth of new material.  With another three weeks of touring still to go, the band realizes that it’s crucial for Phil to get this much needed day off so that he can be at full capacity the rest of the way.  Labonte is pinch-hitting, so to speak, for KsE’s Howard Jones, who had to leave the tour to attend to personal matters.  The band wants to thank their fans in Tucson for their understanding in this matter and wants to assure them that they will make every effort to get back into Tucson as soon as possible.

Yes the rialto will give out refunds. Its says so on thier website, tickets purchased with a credit card will be put back on your card in 2-4 buisness days. and yes this sucks for us but i also have tickets to the Tempe show the following day. Is that show going to be cancelled too? I hope not

Yeah while this really does suck, I know that for a fact the KSE guys didn’t want to have to do it. Be understanding guys, Phil has done a phenominal thing to step in for Howard in his time of absence. Even if you guys need to cancel the Tempe, Az show on the 5th, I will be upset but understand the necessity. Get Phil’s voice going strong and put on a hell of a show for the rest of the US. Arizona can take the hit…we support you guys! ~Anthony

Phil, has an amazing voice to it really needs to recover so he doesn’t blow it out. You guys are ragging on him but if he didn’t step in to help the show would’ve been cancled do to Howard’s absense anyways. So really their was no show. Yea it sucks. Killswitch is my fav. band and I would be pissed if I ment to see them and then it cancled on me. But I’m sure as soon as Howard comes back he will want to make up for lost time. So they will probably atleast come close again. Rest up Phil, and thanks for all that you have done for Killsiwtch.
