The Dillinger Escape Plan cancel summer European tour
New Jersey post-hardcore outfit, The Dillinger Escape Plan have been forced to cancel their upcoming European live dates over the summer after guitarist Ben Weinman injured his wrist.
Weinman sustained the injury at the Metallica-curated Orion Music & More festival over the weekend, saying “I’m heartbroken that we will miss these shows because we were all looking forward to them a great deal. Obviously nobody likes being injured.”
Frontman Greg Puciato said that it was never a doubt that the band would have to scrap the festival appearance and headline shows that had been scheduled for July. ”Leaving for tour knowing that we would be performing without all members on stage isn’t something any of us are comfortable with. Ben is going to take the next month to heal and we’ll be ready to demolish Summer Slaughter and return to Europe in the fall with all systems loaded and ready to go,” he added.
The band released their fifth album One Of Us Is A Killer last month.
