Evergrey - Tour Bus Burglarized, Cancel Iberian Dates

Swedish progressive metallers Evergrey, who are currently on tour through Europe, have cancelled their dates in in Spain (Llodio, A Coruña, Albacete, Madrid and Barcelona) and Portugal (Benavente) after their tour bus has been burglarized. The band's statement reads as follows:

"Due to a break-in in Evergrey's tourbus all gigs in Spain and Portugal are cancelled. Evergrey lost equipment and merchandise for a value BEYOND 35000 EUROS so it is impossible to continue? we pass Lyon on the way home and will use the equipment of the local support. MAYBE we can go home and get new equipment for the Holland shows and come back but this is still uncertain?

A list of ALL things stolen will be presented here together with the Police report.

More details on this soon?

To our Spanish and Portuguese fans we are extremely sorry but we have NO chance of making it with everything being stolen."

My sympathies go to Evergrey, and I hope they get suitable replacement equipment; I also hope the responsible party gets caught. There are two news bulletins today, and both of them are bummers.
