I'm sure it's not very fun being a member of The Faceless right now. The band have spent the last few days stuck off the side of the road somewhere in Texas, being forced to miss the first week of dates of their tour with the Dillinger Escape Plan and Royal Thunder, which kicked off earlier this week.
The band remained silent for the first few days of being out of commission, but after people started showing up to their first few shows and noticed the band was missing, they released an official statement:
"For the past few days we've been stuck in the middle of nowhere outside of Amarillo, Texas due to a vehicle break down. The repairs took much longer than anticipated and we never expected to be stuck here this long.
"We will be missing tonight's show in Buffalo, tomorrow in Pittsburgh and most likely the Philadelphia show. We're very sorry to all the people that wanted to come see us, but this is unfortunately a circumstance beyond our control."
While it certainly sucks that the band is basically trapped, it would've been nice to give their fans notice. I'm sure some fans traveled to the venues just to see The Faceless.
Being the selfish prick that I am, I am glad they didn't include NY on the list of places that will most likely miss seeing them, because I can't wait for this show on Saturday. Get full tour dates here.
