Mastodon cancel European tour due to health concerns
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 27 May 2010
Mastodon have announced that they are cancelling a month long European tour, which was due to begin in Germany on 5 Jun, after guitarist Bill Kelliher was diagnosed with pancreatitis.
In a statement, the band said: “[Bill] has been advised by doctors to continue further medical treatment. Bill’s medical team are optimistic and expect a full recovery in the weeks ahead”.
The band do expect to be able to take part in their ‘BlackDiamondSkye’ co-headline tour with Alice In Chains and Deftones in the US in September and October.
