Pela cancels tonight's show at the High Dive due to injury

Kwab, the booker at the High Dive, sent along this info regarding tonight's Pela show. No word on if the injury will impact the band's Sasquatch! appearance.

Begin email from Kwab:

Hi everybody, I am extremely bummed to announce that PELA has cancelled the remaining dates of their tour due to an injury.

(From PELA's website)
liced Tendons and a Canceled Tour
We are writing to you as our van heads back to New York. Billy has already returned to New York via plane, and is preparing for surgery.

During last night's show at Schuba's in Chicago Billy fell off the stage, landing on a broken pint glass. This happened during the triumphant finale of the set; the stage was crowded with people dancing and singing to 'Cavalry', while a strobe light turned their vision into a cut screen movie. His left hand has a gash on the palm, and a deep slice in his pinky finger which also cut tendons.

We regrettably must announce that Schuba's was the last night of the tour.

We promise to make up each and every show as soon as possible and apologize to everyone who purchased tickets. Arrangements are being made with all of the clubs on how best to handle the situation. We will have more information soon.

You can send your best wishes to billy@pelamusic.com and I'll forward them to him.

Everyone who has purchased tickets through Brown Paper Tickets has been offered a refund.

LIAM FINN along with A Special Guest opener will still be playing at The High Dive tomorrow March 4th. Tickets are $8
