it is with deep regret I have to announce that Wayward Sons will NOT be playing our shows at:

Norwich Riverside Studio on 27th November
and
Stoke Sugarmill on the 28th November

You may or may not have seen my recent post regarding me suffering viral Laryngitis – it is the final nasty result of a long bout of a particularly strong cold virus I’ve been fighting for some weeks. I thought I’d beaten it, but alas I was wrong.
I woke on Saturday morning with no voice and ended up in Troon hospital A and E dept and then seeing a GP who diagnosed the problem. I was then on steroids for two days which helped but are only really a band aid. Last nights show in Leeds (25th November) at the Key Club, was a fantastic show, but it was a real struggle and by the end of the night I was done in.

I cannot tell you how difficult a decision this is for me to not do these gigs, I know you, our fans will be disappointed and I know how difficult it is to arrange nights out especially at this time of year, I am deeply sorry this has happened and wish things could be different. I loath cancelling stuff and equally loath being sub standard on stage – I was borderline that last night – it’s such a let down and again I apologise. I try to get through a show if I have a bad day/sore throat, but this is extreme and I’m powerless to alter it.
The tour has been unbelievable, like a juggernaut really, so I’d do anything to keep that feeling, I really would, but I have to consider the long term implications and rest up in the hope that I can be well enough for Rockstock, Winter Rocks and the final headline date in Bedford.

IMPORTANT:

WE HAVE RE-SCHEDULED THE TWO SHOWS AS FOLLOWS:

24th JAN – STOKE SUGARMILL
25th JAN – NORWICH WATERFRONT

ALL TICKETS ARE VALID THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN PURCHASED.

Once again my deepest apologies to everyone who was looking forward to those shows and I sincerely hope you can all make the new dates and that it hasn’t caused too much difficulty for anyone.
