There have been rumors flying around for a few days that Godflesh will be postponing their upcoming North American tour because of visa issues, but there was no official announcement to work with. There still isn’t from the band but Live Nation has confirmed that the tour — which included a 10/19 stop at Irving Plaza — is postponed. The replacement dates haven’t yet been announced, but it sounds like they’re not going to be until April. Bummer.

The delay was purportedly caused by government-shutdown-related shenanigans, just like the Church of Misery tour delay we mentioned yesterday. Double bummer. Call your congressperson about this travesty…especially if you live in a deep-red fortress district.
