British rockers Bombay Bicycle Club, who are due to hit our shores in the first few days of the new year have just announced that they’ve had to change a variety of dates and locations as well as cancelling their Adelaide show. The band’s shows in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane have all be re-located to significantly smaller venues.

The press release from the band came in the form of a personalised letter and read:

“Hello Australia

Unfortunately due to unforeseen circumstances, we’ve had to move around the headline shows we previously announced and cancel the Adelaide show. We are hugely apologetic to anyone who can’t make the new shows or who we’ve inconvenienced by making these changes but they were unavoidable.

For those who can still attend, your tickets are valid and you don’t need to do anything. For those who can no longer attend, you can get a full refund at your point of purchase. If you have any problems getting a refund or have any questions, please contact [email protected]. If you don’t get a satisfactory response, please contact [email protected]. There is limited ticket availability for these shows.

Once again, we’re sorry if we’ve inconvenienced anyone with these changes. We’re really looking forward to coming back for these gigs and we’ll try to come back again soon to make it up to those who can’t see us this time.
