Tour news: Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, Rav, Meshuggah, Nothing, Sentinels, more

Here’s a roundup of recent tour news. Check the Tour Dates category for more.

MESHUGGAH RESCHEDULE TOUR WITH TORCHE

Meshuggah have rescheduled their early 2022 tour to the fall. Write the band:

While the ongoing pandemic has been throwing various curve balls on us all the past year, ultimately delaying the completion of the upcoming Meshuggah studio album – there are other concerns that have forced us to make this unfortunate decision. Determining factor is the need to prioritize the physical health of one of the band members who is currently undergoing medical treatment related to a skin condition on his hands, hindering him from rehearsals and from all in all playing his instrument. While we are optimistic for his future recovery we know it will not be possible for him and the band to be ready to perform already in February 2022.

Converge have had to drop off the tour, which also includes Torche. The new NYC date is September 18 at Hammerstein Ballroom. Rescheduled dates are here:
