Swedish glam rock/metal band Crashdïet's bassist Peter London has issued the following update on the band's website: "Well, as some of you already know, I've had some problems with back pains lately. Since December 2010 I've been struggling with spinal disc herniation, and unfortunately, right now the pain is just getting worse and worse. I'm simply not able to even stand up for longer than a few minutes at a time. No medicine is working, believe me I've tried them all by now. I will have surgery and I hope to be back on my feet within eight weeks or so..."

"Unfortunately this means that we are forced to cancel the Rock The Night festival show on March 9th (in Lichtenfels, Germany). Regarding the Shout It Out Loud festival on March 10th (in Mülheim, Germany), we will book a new date that should be announced pretty soon. Sorry my friends!"

The next confirmed tour dates for the band will be at different festivals this summer and in Helsinki, where they support Mötley Crüe.
