Punktastic Presents… Man Overboard tour postponed

By Ben Tipple

Man Overboard have been forced to postpone their forthcoming EU tour, delivered in conjunction with Punktastic.

The unavoidable postponement is due to co-vocalist Nik Bruzzese requiring immediate surgery on a torn ACL (anterior cruciate ligament, don’t you know).

“It is with a heavy heart that we are forced to postpone our November European tour until April and May 2015 due a medical emergency,” the band announced in a recent statement. “Nik tore his ACL and had to get surgery yesterday. His doctor made it clear to us that putting off the surgery could put Nik and his ACL in worse condition which will lead to an even longer recovery time. The good news is his surgery went well and he is now recovering at home. We are extremely sorry to disappoint anyone but taking care of this now will pave the way for an amazing and busy 2015. We love you and thank you for your everlasting support in our lives. See you April, complete details are on the way.”

The tour, which also included Hostage Calm and Roam, has been rescheduled to April and May 2015. All tickets remain valid – and the shows still promise to be excellent.
