É Foda ser Rockeiro no Brasil\\ KILLSWITCH ENGAGE: South American Tour Postponed

Massachusetts metallers KILLSWITCH ENGAGE have released the following statement:

"KILLSWITCH ENGAGE will, unfortunately, have to postpone their upcoming South America tour due to the illness of lead singer Howard Jones. Howard is currently bed-ridden with a gallstone issue and has been told by his doctor that he should not leave his bed until further notice. He is currently getting proper medical care and hopes to be on his feet and in less pain by the end of the week, at which time we will determine how soon we can reschedule these South America dates.

"KILLSWITCH would like to apologize to their fans in South America for this setback and want to assure them that the band has every intention to make up these dates in the near future."

The new, self-titled album from KILLSWITCH ENGAGE sold 58,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 7 on The Billboard 200 chart. The CD was released on June 30 via Roadrunner Records. It was produced by Brendan O'Brien (AC/DC, RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE) and co-produced by guitarist Adam Dutkiewicz.

Comentários: Que bosta!!!
Estávamos aguardando ansiosos por este show, mas agora estamos voltando a normalidade.
A safra de shows internacionais estava exageradamente excelente para acreditarmos ser verdade.
Os cancelamentos são a nossa realidade, de um país de terceiro mundo, que ainda temos a petulância de nos classificar como uma potência. Pura besteira.
Um país em que a pirataria reina absoluta e os ingressos para os shows tem preços manipulados para compensarem as malditas meias entradas de "estudantes".
Fica realmente difícil para as bandas e empresários se interessarem em perder tempo por aqui.
Até acredito que Howard Jones esteja com pedra na visícula, mas garanto que se o show deste sábado fosse na Europa, Japão ou Austrália, o evento iria rolar normalmente.
