The Flatliners have announced that they are delaying the start of their European tour due to the increase in travel costs. Their shows in Madrid, Gijon, Barcelona, Le Garric, and Fribourg will be rescheduled for next year. The tour will now begin on August 2 in Paris. The band announced this in an Instagram post that reads in part, "Just when we thought we'd all be getting back to doing what we love, uninterrupted and reunited with you all, the world doesn't seem to want to fully cooperate. We've made the difficult decision to bow out of the first week of our upcoming European tour due to the overwhelming rise of travel costs that every band on the planet, big or small, is facing right now. […] We want it to be clear that this is in no way the fault of the promoters, the booking agency, the clubs or the other bands. Everyone has been so helpful with putting this tour together. The sad truth is the cost of travel is the highest it's ever been, and is simply just far too high for us to make the whole tour work as it should." The band will touring Western Canada in the fall, the Northeast in November and Ontario and Quebec in December including two Holiday Melee shows in Toronto. The Flatliners will be releasing their album New Ruin on August 5 and released Inviting Light in 2017. Check out the statement in full below.
