Dear PRR peeps,

We're so sorry that due to extenuating circumstances we are unable to perform at Moonloop Festival, Ukraine & the two Holland shows 11th &12th November.
However we have 6 final UK shows booked to enable us to say a fond farewell to you all.

This is terrible news. While yesterday I started the day with the news that Riverside would be playing a show in Portugal, today one of my favourite bands is ending. Don't know what to say, except this is bad.

I got to see them live once, but they were just opening for Porcupine Tree. I really thought I would see many many more albums from this band.
