Helsinki 2003 date postponed

Bruce saw doctors and specialists this morning and he has been advised he is certainly not well enough to play in Helsinki on Monday. He will see them again on Monday and we hope by then he will be given the all-clear for the forthcoming shows which are of course all sold out. We are looking at the options to reschedule these concerts in Wroclaw and Helsinki as soon as possible. Please bear with us and we will keep you updated on this site.

Another gig cancellation.. hopefully Bruce will recover soon and the tour can continue as normal.
