Leaves' Eyes Cancels Remainder Of North American Headlining Tour

German/Norwegian symphonic metallers Leaves' Eyes has announced the cancellation of it North American headlining tour. The band commented by saying:

"We regret to announce that the remaining dates of our North American Tour will not take place. This also includes the show in Mexico City.

"As a result of Kamelot's last-minute cancellation of their headlining tour, Leaves' Eyes still tried their best to play as many dates in the USA and Canada as possible. The big gap between the cancelled Kamelot tour dates and our own headlining dates is just to big to overcome. This made it impossible to continue any further.

"We are feeling terribly sorry for having to release this statement as we put an immense amount of energy and effort to make a full North American tour happen. Everybody was very excited to play in North America and Mexico again. However, the power to decide was not at all in our hands. We deeply regret that we now had to stop touring and return to Europe.

"We are very greatful to our fans, friends, Blackguard, the radio stations, all the promoters who made it possible for us to play the shows we did so far. We will never forget these fantastic moments. We really hope that we have better luck when touring America next time."
