As previously reported, the Canadian Carnage tour which featured Megadeth, Slayer, Machine Head and Suicide Silence has been postponed as Slayer frontman Tom Araya has had to go emergency back surgery. A message from Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine reads as follows:

"Today is Tuesday, November 3rd and unfortunately I have the bad news to tell you that our Canadian Carnage tour is being postponed due to Tom Araya (Slayer) needing to get some emergency back surgery. So just wanted to let you know we are not cancelling, we are just postponing. Canadian Carnage is going to be rescheduled and you can probably count on that being somewhere around the new year."

What's Next?

Well, there's your answer! Someone asked if the tour is cancelled due to Araya's surgery, and so it is. Too bad!
