Epica en Apocalyptica moeten tour weer verplaatsen

Epica heeft nogmaals moeten besluiten om de co-headlinetour met Apocalyptica (en voorprogramma Wheel) te verplaatsen als gevolg van de doorgaande beperkingen in de diverse landen waar ze zouden optreden. Het is door deze verschillende maatregelen onmogelijk gebleken om een tour van door 17 landen te organiseren. Daarom is de complete tour een jaar naar voren geschoven.
Zangeres Simone Simons zegt hierover: “We are very sorry to inform you that we have been forced to postpone our European tour with Apocalyptica and Wheel once again. Even though in some countries shows of this size are allowed again, it is too early to do a full European tour with such a large production and travel party which would be performing in over 15 different countries. Our patience is put to the test as we really want to get back on the road to perform in front of our fans, but we want to be sure that everyone is safe and can enjoy the shows the right way. Thank you all so much for your patience! We will see each other soon again.”
Apocalyptica vult hierbij aan: “We are more than disappointed to announce the postponement of ‘The Epic Apocalypse’ Tour once again, but looking on the current situation we cannot take the responsibility to play these shows. We do not want to put anyone at risk and are very much looking forward to play these shows in 2023 where we can hopefully go back to playing shows like we did before! We hope to see you soon! Stay safe!”
