Lush drop off Coachella weekend 1 and other shows due to visa issues
We already knew Skepta and Sasha had to cancel their Coachella performances, and now a third cancellation has come and it’s an especially sad one. Reunited shoegaze/Britpop band Lush, who would have began their first North American tour in about 20 years at the festival and who we were especially excited to see, have dropped off due to visa issues:
1/2 Due to Visa issues, we've been forced to postpone our show tonight at The Roxy LA. This will be rescheduled for Mon April 25.

2/2 Tickets purchased will be honored for this new date. Refunds are available at point of purchase. No change to other West Coast shows.

1/2 We regret to announce that our shows at Coachella this weekend as well at The Warfield in San Fran on Sun April 17 will no longer happen

2/2 The Warfield show will be rescheduled for Sun, April 24. Tickets purchased previously will be honored for this new date. We're sorry…!

Bummer!
They’re still supposed to play weekend two, and their tour is expected back on our shores in September, when they’ll play NYC’s Terminal 5 and more. Updated dates are listed below.
Meanwhile, you can pick up the Lush box set on Record Store Day this weekend.
