John Grant has announced via his Facebook page that his forthcoming tour of the US has been cancelled.
In a status update late last night, Grant wrote:
“Just two minutes ago, at quarter to midnight I’m being told that my tour of the U.S. has been cancelled and I am in shock. But it’s true, this is not a joke. Apparently there were no pre-sales to speak of and so they’ve decided to make this decision the night before I leave.
“Don’t ask me any questions right now, I’m pissed off and need to find out more about wtf is going on.
Online ticket sellers give “illness” as the reason for the cancellation.
