The K! Relentless Energy Drink Tour ended in disappointing circumstances on January 30, when the scheduled show at the 02 Academy Brixton had to be cancelled due to a electrical power failure in the local area.
The bands had soundchecked in the venue earlier in the day without problems, but shortly before 6pm on the night power was lost across the Lambeth area, and regrettably, although some electricity was supplied to the venue, this was not sufficient to power the onstage sound and lighting equipment and we were left with no option but to cancel the show.
Kerrang!, Relentless, Mindless Self Indulgence, Dir en grey, Bring Me The Horizon, Black Tide and In Case Of Fire and everyone connected with the tour is aware that the cancellation came as a huge disappointment to all 4000 ticket holders for the Brixton show: unfortunately the problems were beyond anyone’s control.
We must regrettably announce that, despite the very best intentions of the five bands on the tour, it will not be possible to reschedule the show.
Management for all the individual bands involved however are looking to bring their acts back to London as soon as their schedules permit.
All ticket holders for the cancelled show should contact their point of purchase for refunds.
