The Futureheads cancel 2006 tour

“British rockers THE FUTUREHEADS have cancelled their upcoming US tour after frontman BARRY HYDE recently came down with tendonitis. The four-piece had been due to kick off their American tour in Seattle, Washington on Wednesday, but Hyde’s inflamed left wrist has forced the band to abandon the trek. However, drummer ROSS MILLARD has promised fans The Futureheads will return ‘at the next available opportunity’. He says, ‘We are deeply sorry, but I guess we have to focus on Barry making progress toward recovery, and only rest will enable that.'” [Contact Music] (thx all)
