Bob Pollard Injured - Tour Canceled

Some unfortunate news for those of you in Baltimore, Boston and Northampton - the Merge Records blog is reporting that Uncle Bob suffered an injury and is being forced to cancel the remainder of his Normal Happiness tour. No word on what exactly happened, or whether Bob finally high-kicked himself in the head. Glad I got to catch the band the other night at Irving Plaza Bowery Ballroom (oops, I was drunk)...

If you have tickets for the Baltimore show, don't fret (too much). Portastatic will go forward with a full-band show as scheduled, with The Oranges Band opening. And tickets are a low low $5! (TIX)

(Thanks to Matt for the tip!)
