Zoltan Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Angels and Airwaves Angels & Airwaves regrettably announce today that due to Tom DeLonge being severely sick and advised by his doctors not to travel, the band will have to cancel their upcoming tour dates. Angels & Airwaves were scheduled to play on May 12th at the DC101 Chili Cook-Off, May 13th in Philadelphia, PA at Festival Pier for Radio 104.5's birthday and on May 14th in New York at Webster Hall. Refunds will be available at point of purchase. Sorry for any inconvenience and disappointment this may cause any of our fans! https://www.facebook.com/angelsandairwaves/posts/10151668933355144 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Appi Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 First time in years I could've seen Blink in my home town... won't happen. Hope Travis is ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M!ke Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Anyone else think it's fishy that Tom is so sick that AVA too had to cancel some dates? I don't see it as a bad indication since AVA too is affected, I just think it's really weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkarrow Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Yeah it seems weird as hell that both him and Travis are out of commission. Especially considering there was no sign of Tom being sick until they cancelled dates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aria Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 Am I missing something? What the fuck is fishy about Travis recovering from surgery and Tom being sick? Cause it's happening at the same time? Seriously?! If anything I thought you guys would be relieved that AVA is cancelling shows too. One less thing to draw up conspiracies regarding blink breaking up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissingNo. Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 For as little as they tour, they cancel to much. And having your tonsils removed isn't emergency. He probably gets tonsillitis all the time and the doctors were just like lets rip these suckers out so you don't have this problem and he was like, I just want to get this out of the way.

Blink182acti0n Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 its not a fucking big deal. I'm happy to hear that tom canceled some ava shows, that band sucks anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MassKirbycide Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 The only thing I am interested in is why those Oklahoma shows are so goddamn important. The other May dates got straight-up canceled, but those two dates were rescheduled. Maybe those who were thinking it was a possible live album taping were on to something? #conspiracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because it isn't life-threatening doesn't mean it shouldn't be taken care of. Once their tour starts, the next chance he'd have to get them out wouldn't be for a while. If the palatine tonsils get inflamed it can get really uncomfortable, would you want to wait a month or so and deal with recurrent inflammation of your tonsils? Do you know how annoying that would be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a gigantic casino that has high profile performers. My guess is that there was a lot of $$ around. Am I missing something?

I'm not drawing up a conspiracy, i'm just chalking it up as laziness. That's what's fishy to me. Travis had his tonsils out like a week ago and has been tweeting like crazy ever since. I think it was a convenient excuse and Tom followed up with his own cop out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was a convenient excuse and Tom followed up with his own cop out. You know Tom's sick to right? Apparently he's be adviced by Dr's to not travel so it's not just Travis that's sick. Honestly Tom must be real sick to cancel AVA shows considering that's his main thing. And since when can u not tweet if your sick? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghent Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 I just said that Tom was sick, which sounds like a convenient cop out to me. And usually if you are in an "emergency" situation (that doesn't allow you to travel) you don't get tattoos and party immediately afterward.

Knapppers Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 Wow im so glad i didnt get tickets to bamboozle. I actually looked into hotel and flights but it was way too exspensive. This is definatly a bummer. Anybody know what Tom has? I cant see him being straight up sick because what doctors advise not to travel just for being sick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghent Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 He has a case of being lazy. Can't complain though because any canceled AVA show is god's gift to humanity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wouldn't of cancelled AVA shows i'd call if Fishy considering he'd do AVA over Blink in a heart beat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supervic Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 travis was on a plane and his body caught on fire. and then he went through multiple surgeries to get through it. i'm pretty sure this isn't a case of him being a baby about anything. he can handle his own if he needs to. there must be some reason why this is enough to cancel some shows.

One less thing to draw up conspiracies regarding blink breaking up. Read again, I said it was fishy and that it wasnt a bad indication because of AVA canceling their tour. If anything I'd take it as a positive fishy situation, as if blink were working out a new song for release or something of that like. Of course that is partly the old conspiracy me poking through, but come on, it is crazy weird that both tours were canceled so quickly after each other for unrelated medical conditions. Seems so strange to me, that's all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
