Or Spinefarm couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery. And they are being very quiet.

If this is indeed true, I suspect it's due to the tour selling poorly and dates and some sized venues will be massively scaled down
if and when it takes place later this year. I've been surprised since the dates and scope of the tour was announced especially here
in North America that it was overly ambitious, yet poorly advertised when the bands' relatively low profile is taken into account.
It's very possible Spinefarm had no idea how to properly book this tour and realized they were going to be throwing a *lot* of money
away when they saw many dates not selling well and decided to pull the plug.
