Volbeat | Anthrax Show Called Off

Sources tell us that Volbeat and Anthrax had to cancel their Calgary tour becuase the building engineer determined earlier today that the building they were supposed to play in could not "meet the requirements of the show". Apparently Volbeat and Anthrax just rock too hard.

Here is a statement issued by Volbeat on their facebook

“Today it was determined by the building engineer that the building infrastructure was not adequate to support the requirements of the show. In order to ensure the safety of the fans and band, it was decided by the building not to proceed with the show in this building at this time. Volbeat are disappointed that the show can not go on as scheduled and expect to return at a future date.”

Only a week into their tour, this is obviously a huge bummer. The two bands were supposed to play this Sunday night at the Calgary Stampede Corral in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, but to the dissapointment of the fans, Anthrax tweeted that the show in Calgary just could not go on. You can tell by several of the band's most recent tweets that they are more than bummed out.
