RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE have cancelled their UK and European tour
RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE will not be moving forward with their planned tour of the UK and Europe due to vocalist Zack de la Rocha‘s injured leg. Zack got the injury while on stage at the beginning of the band’s current reunion tour back in July. Since then, he has been performing all of the band’s concerts while seated but has unfortunately been advised not to continue with the planned UK and European tour.
RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE released a statement saying Zack will head home for physical rehabilitation after the band’s final date at Madison Square Garden on August 14.
The band says: “Per medical guidance, Zack de la Rocha has been advised that the August and September 2022 UK and European leg of the Rage Against The Machine tour cannot proceed. It is with great disappointment that we announce this cancellation.
“Rage Against The Machine will be finishing their run at Madison Square Garden on August 11, 12 & 14 and then Zack must return home for rest and rehabilitation. The flights, travel time, and rigorous schedule in the UK and Europe are simply too much of a risk for a complete recovery.
“We are so sorry to all of our fans who have waited years to see us and hope to Rage again soon. Please contact your point of purchase for refunds to any headline shows.”
