Converge show cancellations

Converge have announced that they've been forced to cancel a few upcoming shows:

After driving overnight to Poughkeepsie from Baltimore (and almost hitting hundreds of deer in the process...), we got word that "Rhythmden" festival has been cancelled due to "insurance" issues. Thanks to Subzero and On Broken Wings for getting the word out to us and other bands. We hope to be back in the Poughkeepsie NY area sometime in 2K7.

While we were typing the above information, Jake received a call about a death in his immediate family. So he can attend the funeral and be home to support his family, we are canceling Philadelphia and New York City shows of the tour.

Despite all the cancellations, the shows in Buffalo, Cleveland, Levittown and Rever will go on as planned.

The band recently released No Heroes.
