(antiMusic) The forthcoming Dashboard Confessional / New Found Glory Tour is no longer forthcoming after Dashboard Confessional pulled out of the trek due to "a family situation."Dashboard Confessional posted the following notice on their website: We have some bad news. Due to a family situation that is beyond our control, we have to cancel our upcoming tour with New Found Glory, Never Shout Never, Meg & Dia and Single File (we are still playing with the Louisville Orchestra on November 7th). We don't take this lightly but family has to come first. As this is a last minute development, we are still figuring out what we will do- as soon as we know, you will know. We apologize to everyone who planned on coming to the shows. We will find a way to make it up to you.
At press time there was still no official word from the New Found Glory camp about the fate of the tour, but Chad Gilbert of the group posted the following on his Twitter (which pretty much confirms the whole tour is off): To EVERYONE WHO IS CONFUSED. NFG and TITLE FIGHT shows are NOT cancelled. Only the Dashboard tour was. Our headline shows are still a go!!!!
These are the shows listed on the NFG website:
Nov 3 2009 Station 4 Saint Paul, Minnesota
Nov 5 2009 New Daisy Memphis, Tennessee
Nov 6 2009 Emerson Theater Indianapolis, Indiana
Nov 7 2009 Pop's Sauget, Illinois
