As I Lay Dying cancels KsE tour; two bands added

In a move that can only be described as inevitable given the incarceration of frontman Tim Lambesis, As I Lay Dying has dropped off Killswitch Engage's U.S. tour with Miss May I. Here's the official word:
In light of recent events, As I Lay Dying will unfortunately not be taking part in the upcoming tour with Killswitch Engage. Given the circumstances, we feel that it is best for the band to be off the road while the current situation gets sorted. We'd like to thank all of our fans for their ongoing support at this difficult time.
Darkest Hour and The Word Alive have now been added to the trek as replacements. Dates for the entire tour can be found here.

First to say this tour sucks now

anonymous 5/16/2013 5:43:19 AM

it sucked before

anonymous 5/16/2013 5:48:24 AM

I'm more concerned with this sick Starkill banner up top.

anonymous 5/16/2013 5:56:23 AM

Tour just took a nose dive, darkest hour is cool though

anonymous 5/16/2013 6:08:01 AM

so it's a win win.

angina 5/16/2013 6:14:53 AM

was the promoter given some cash for expenses up front?

anonymous 5/16/2013 6:27:27 AM

Promoter was given cash in an envelope and was told, "I want this show gone"

anonymous 5/16/2013 6:41:07 AM

^'Tour just took a nose dive'^ (because AILD isn't playing?!!) Have you seen AILD live? They're horrible. Darkest Hour is the shit. Show just got much better. Word Alive gay though

anonymous 5/16/2013 7:57:07 AM

I wonder why AilD canceled....DUH

RickRock 5/16/2013 8:32:09 AM

Tour improved immensely. Big Deal!

anonymous 5/16/2013 8:33:00 AM

emmure is shocked.

anonymous 5/16/2013 8:42:31 AM

Have you seen AILD live? They're horrible. Darkest Hour is the shit. Show just got much better. I think he means the fact that the tour bands replacing AILD are worth about 100 tickets.

Affiance must be stoked after spending so much money to get put on this tour.

anonymous 5/16/2013 10:39:02 AM

"emmure is shocked" excellent work

anonymous 5/16/2013 10:58:59 AM

As I lay dying should be on this

malachi 5/16/2013 11:20:25 AM

This tour is now worth a shit. AILD should take a hint from their name and kill themselves.

anonymous 5/16/2013 11:21:30 AM

I wonder what the current situation is.

anonymous 5/16/2013 12:16:27 PM

Dropping off tour to work on max squat and cleans.

anonymous 5/16/2013 12:40:31 PM

aild is garbage. tim, dont drop the soap ya douchebag

anonymous 5/16/2013 12:58:49 PM

I'll sit thru any bullshit to watch KSE's original lineup. 2003 STAND UP!!! - HeartthRob

anonymous 5/16/2013 1:21:07 PM

Bullshit lazy ass god loving bands... If the Lone Rangers could make a career out of performing in prison so can As I Lay Dying... gay life band church god socal flip.

anonymous 5/16/2013 1:24:26 PM

fck yeah darkest hour

anonymous 5/16/2013 1:36:02 PM

I love Darkest Hour and they have way more cool albums than as i lay dominating an ab workout.

anonymous 5/16/2013 1:48:47 PM

TWA and MMI are so gonna bring out the hot scene girls to this

anonymous 5/16/2013 2:18:24 PM

ironic. i heard "killbitch engage" was the secret codeword they agreed on to greenlight the hit when the shit was supposed to go down. thank you.

anonymous 5/16/2013 2:57:26 PM

Would be worth it if this tour happened like 8 years ago. KsE would have OG Jesse(not too impressed since he rejoined) and Darkest Hour would have Kris Norris

anonymous 5/16/2013 3:46:06 PM

Don't drop the soap Tim. Just read members of the label and his band were there to support - really? Like the police just decided to frame him? Get a clue - guilty as fck.

anonymous 5/16/2013 7:03:38 PM

AILD 'fans' won't remember the band by the time Tim gets out

anonymous 5/17/2013 11:44:08 AM

Darkest Hour is coming now? better buy my ticket then!

anonymous 5/18/2013 5:20:01 PM

Miss May I untangles from their all male fun pretzel to comment: "were stoked"
