02.27.08 DARKEST HOUR CANCELS FEW TOUR DATES
Darkest Hour
Alexa [04.11pm]
regrets that we have to cancel the last remaining days of our Doomsayer’s North American Tour. However, all of the shows will go on as scheduled (with the Red Chord headlining New York City, NY, and Allentown, PA) except for Washington, DC, which has been outright canceled.
The tour has been an amazing time but guitarist Kris Norris has been summoned home to attend to the early birth of his first little baby.
It is with great joy that we wish Kris and his wife Christina luck with their new addition to the family.
Sometimes when you live out on the road, life back home has to be put first. We couldnt have asked for a better tour package on this tour and our hearts go out to EMMURE, WHITE CHAPEL, and CHEPHALIC CARNAGE. We only hope to be blessed with their mighty rock again sometime soon.
Utmost, we apologize to all the fans, friends, dudes and dudettes out there in (NY, DC, and PA). We will be back to make it up to you for sure! We will see ya this summer with a surprise that we can’t wait to announce.
Thanks-
Darkest Hour
