The Finn Brothers have postponed the whole of their European tour following the death of former Split Enz and Crowded House drummer Paul Hester. As previously reported, the brothers had originally cancelled some dates and rearranged others in order to attend the funeral of Hester, who committed suicide in a
Melbourne Park at the end of Mar. Now all of those dates are to be put back.
A message on the band's web site explained that "following the tragic events of the past two weeks, Neil Finn has been diagnosed as suffering from mental exhaustion and stress and is taking an immediate four-week break from touring on doctor's advice." New dates are expected to be announced in the coming days.
