[News] Radiohead Postpones Tour Dates Following Last Weekend's Stage Collapse
Following the tragic stage collapse prior to their concert in Toronto's Downsview Park last Saturday, Radiohead has released an official statement regarding the incident and how it will affect their future touring schedule. The band has announced that they will be postponing many of their upcoming tour dates in Europe, as the incident resulted in their onstage light show being destroyed. After the jump, you can take a look at their updated touring schedule, and below is the band's official statement:
Hello everyone,
As you will probably have heard the roof over the stage collapsed at our show in Toronto killing crew member Scott Johnson and injuring three other crew members. The collapse also destroyed the light show – this show was unique and will take many weeks to replace. The collapse also caused serious damage to our backline, some elements of which are decades old and therefore hard to replace.
Whilst we all are dealing with the grief and shock ensuing from this terrible accident there are also many practical considerations to deal with & consequently we have to try and reschedule the following shows:
June
30 Roma Hippodrome CapanelleJuly
1 Firenze Parco delle Cascine
3 Bologna Arena Parco Nord
4 Codroipo Villa Manin
6 Berlin Wuhlheide
7 Berlin Wuhlhedie
9 St Triphon Carriere des AndoncesWe aim to announce the new dates for these shows on Wednesday 27th of June and will also supply information on how to obtain refunds on tickets if you cannot come to the show on the new date.
We will start playing live again at Les Arenes Nimes, Bilbao BBK festival and Lisbon Optimus Alive festival.
We will make every effort to offer the fans the very best show possible under the circumstances
– thanks for your understanding and support."
[News] The Black Keys to Start Work on New LP in July
In an interview with Rolling Stone, Patrick Carney of The Black Keys revealed that the band will be back in the studio this July working on the follow-up to El Camino, which was released only six months ago. The band hopes to release this new album sometime in 2013, and given their tour schedule that time frame is much more likely.
Speaking of The Black Keys, the band has filed suit against Pizza Hut and their parent company Yum! Brands Inc. reports Bloomberg. The allegations stem from Pizza Hut's unauthorized use of the band's music in one of their recent commercials, an accusation that has also been aimed towards Home Depot. El Camino producer Danger Mouse claims that Pizza Hut used "Gold on the Ceiling" and Home Depot used "Lonely Boy" without permission, and, after the jump, you can watch the Pizza Hut commercial in question and judge for yourself.
