[kj] OT: NMA US tour cancelled...

[Darren A. Peace]

I've never really got NMA, but am willing to be convinced. I have
"Vengeance", "Impurity" & "No Rest For The Wicked", and only like
"Vengeance". Which other ones should I try? Ones without Joolz' rubbish
illustrations strongly favoured...

I hate to say this (ditto). I saw NMA in 2003. Sure, the gig was announced
to be acoustic, yet they played their new stuff. The only old song they
performed was "Stupid Questions". I knew I could not expect to listen to
"Vengeance", "Bittersweet", of course "51st State", yet they could have
performed "Vagabonds" at least, if it had to be acoustic. Was pretty
disappointed. Of course it is great performers, but I fear that their newer
works lost somewhat their edge.

I hate to say this... And I could be wrong....But I do not think they fill
gigs in the USA like the use to. They have been here a gang of times. So why
would they be denied?

Our apologies to anyone who has already received this message...

 

We are sorry to deliver this bad news...

 

VISAS Denied. North American tour cancelled. 

 

We have regrettably been forced to cancel the North American tour that was
due to start this week. The US Citizenship and Immigration Service have
denied the visas that the band require to travel to the USA and so until
this matter is resolved all shows are on hold.

 

The band and management are extremely disappointed by this result as the
tour was destined to be one of the greats. The new album is out, there is
media attention in every city and the expectations are (were) high from the
thousands of fans who had bought advance tickets.

 

The dates will be re-booked once the Immigration situation is resolved. In
the meantime, ticket refunds are available from the point of purchase.

 

At present time we are still awaiting the reason for our denial from the
proper authorities.

 

Check back for updates as we will be further investigating this matter.

 

Despite all the gloom there is a light at the end of the tunnel... "HIGH"
was released in the US on Tuesday and reports are that sales are brisk..
