European Tour Cut Short Due To Illness Saturday, 24 March 2007

The Arcade Fire have cancelled 9 dates on their current European Tour. Win Butler has been fighting a sinus infection since the beginning of this year and has simply been unable to get back to full health. With the constant demands on his voice from touring it has reached the stage today where he simply cannot sing.

The shows are the final nine of the sold out European tour. The cancelled shows are

Mar 24 Oslo, Sentrum Scene
Mar 25 Copenhagen, KB Halle
Mar 27 Berlin, Postbanhof
Mar 28 Munich, Elser Halle
Mar 31 Lyon, Transbordeur
Apr 1 Cologne, Palladium
Apr 2 Utrecht, Vredenburg
Apr 4 Brussels, Halles de Schaerbeek
Apr 5 Lille, L'Aeronef

Ticket holders should get in touch with the promoter directly regarding refunds. Due to future touring plans, it is unlikely that these shows will be rescheduled until later this year.

Hate seems a little harsh, no?

They're OK. They certainly have their moments.

I think id agree with this... I really love songs like No Cars Go - but other stuff just doesnt do it for me as much

I hate Funeral. And now I'm stuck with an ablum I paid good money for. Seriously, it's on my trade list, and I don't do that anymore. That's how much I hate that album.

Well, let's see then:

Near synonyms: dislike strongly, abhor, abominate, despise, detest, execrate, loathe
Related words: deplore, deprecate, disapprove (of), discountenance, disdain, disfavor, scorn
Phrases: have it in for

Nope. Hate is the word for it.

They' re one of those bands that seem to take the mystery out of mysterious. They have some ok songs but bridges will never be built because of their music and poverty will still reign supreme.
