>From Killing Joke: Official on FB today:

"It is with great regret and a heavy heart that we have had to cancel the
 upcoming “Letters From Cythera” Jaz Coleman spoken word tour. Sadly 
Jaz’ visa has been subject to delays in processing and in all good 
conscience we just could not leave it until the eleventh hour to make 
the call. Jaz would like to send sincere apologies to fans and concert 
promoters, thanking you all for your loyal support and make it clear 
that this issue will in no way affect events in the future. All planned 
KJ shows are going ahead as planned."

I wouldn't read too much into this, re: the US gov's attempts to silence Jaz and his subversive ideas. Work and artist Visas are harder to come by these days, and processing is inconsistent and can take eons. I'm sure it had nothing to do with pre-sale either. ;)
