Crowbar have cancelled their summer European tour. The dates were scrapped as frontman Kirk Windstein continues to deal with a bilateral synovial cyst.

Windstein commented:

“Hey, everybody. Kirk Windstein from Crowbar here, and I have an announcement to make. As everybody knows, or most fans know, I had to perform sitting down last year during the Crowbar/Eyegategod U.S. tour. And I have a bilateral synovial cyst on my spine that is beginning to flare up again and it’s giving me a lot of problems. To cut straight to the point, it’s acting up and has been for a couple of weeks now, so I begin physical therapy tomorrow morning.

Unfortunately, we have to cancel this upcoming European tour. I have been touring for 36 years, and I’ve never canceled a tour. But due to my physical health at this point, I’m unable to get on plane flights and ride in the van for two weeks and catch two flights home. So I do apologize, and I understand y’all will be disappointed, understandably, but we’re gonna do everything we can to make up these shows. We’re not rescheduling the tour, but just to make up these cities next year when we’re over in Europe with Crowbar.

So thank y’all for understanding and all the best.”
