Tours: The Vaccines Cancel Fall Tour Dates with Young Buffalo and Tennis

The following was statement was issued on the Vaccines' official site today:


"Sorry to keep so many of you in the dark regarding our touring plans over the next few weeks, but we wanted to be sure of them before we spoke to you. Unfortunately, the Doctor has now confirmed that, this week, he will be operating on my throat for a third time this year. It was the wait for this decision, and no other reason, that meant we were able to complete commitments over this last week and why we will not be able to complete those in the coming weeks.

In a bid to allow my throat to recover and rehabilitate completely, we will be cancelling all shows, including our trips to North America in September and Japan and Europe in October. We will resume with our touring commitments in Paris on October 26th before supporting our friends the Arctic Monkeys here in the UK. This allows me to have eight weeks of the best vocal therapy available, allowing the best possible chance of complete recovery."


In addition, he went on to say that, "cancelling shows in exchange for repeated hospital visits plain fucking sucks." From that we can deduce that this isn't a Kings of Leon bullshit excuse cancellation. These guys really want to play. 

The following dates were rescheduled to the one's below: 

Sun 11 Dec Hamburg Knust
Mon 12 Dec Koln Luxor
Wed 14 Dec Amsterdam Paradiso
Thu 15 Dec Copenhagen Vega
Fri 16 Dec Stockholm Debaser Medis
Sun 18 Dec Berlin Postbahnhof
Mon 19 Dec Brussels AB Main Hall
