I've meant tonight gig. Not sure what will happen yet, but it's not guaranteed to happen =(
 
BMTH was canceled for Liverpool and several other gigs. Besides, Dir en Grey are pretty bad live anyway brah, you weren't missing much. Also, it seems that members of AUKN only care about DeG... wut.
 
I'd be pissed if it really was cancelled.

But as said, it's only postponed. For what it's worth, Oli (BMTH) was ill so no BMTH for me. Not that I've heard much from them.

It'd be awesome if Kerrang! Could actually get a tour running that suffered no problems half way in.
 
"Official Statement

Saturday January 31 2009

It was with regret that the last night of the Kerrang! Relentless Energy Drink Tour 2009 at Brixton Academy on January 30 was cancelled due to an unforseen electrical power failure in local area.

Despite great efforts from the organisers and venue managers to remedy the situation throughout the evening, the energy supplier did not fix the problem and we were left with no option but to cancel the show.

Whilst we explored other options, including the possible rescheduling of the show for tonight (Saturday Jan 31), we did not have the assurances that the problem would be rectified in time.

Under the circumstances, and despite the best intentions of the five bands on the tour, it will not be possible to reschedule the show in the immediate future.

We understand how disappointing this was for everyone who had bought a ticket for what promised to be an amazing show. The bands, Kerrang! and Relentless all share this disappointment, especially at what was supposed to be the climax night of a great tour.

Please check back for more information and how to obtain ticket refunds on www.kerrang.com from Monday Feb 2.

We advise all ticket holders to retain their ticket stub."

It was the only band I knew before buying the tickets. I actually liked Mindless Self Indulgence, but I only came to know them after looking them up.

My brother took quite a few pictures of Dir en Grey (Mostly Kyo) from the gig, will posting them make you feel better?

=) Thanks for the thought , but not really. With very few exceptions, I don't know what the member of my favourite bands looks like.
I focus on the music, although I use youtube to find some clips, I seldom pay any attention to the videos.
