Russian Circles have been forced to cancel shows in Atlanta, Baton Rouge, and Carbarro as their van and equipment has been destroyed.
A message posted on the band's blog said: "Nothing like buying a new van and having it destroyed 4 days later along with the trailer that was rented and a ton of gear. Vintage Gretsch drum kit - tears for that.
"The band have been stranded in Baton Rouge since Friday and are so sad to have had to miss playing the Baton Rouge, Atlanta and Carborro shows. But they are on the way to buy their second van in a week and will make it to play DC and the rest of the tour dates with Boris barring any other disasters."
Pictures and information on how to help the band financially can be found on the group's blog.

The link didn't go into any detail either, or at least the 2 second glance I had didn't reveal anything. How do you accidentally destroy your car? Was it like, "oh shit I completely didn't mean to park in the compactor"

"Van & Trailer just got destroyed in accident. Any bands near here that may have van & trail able to help us get to venue ASAP?"
Via their Twitter.

|
| |

whats with it and van-related incidents
|
| |
Touring vans are turning against their bands. It's an all out war I say.
|
| |
That sucks. Keep on Keepin' on Brian Cook.
|
| |
"oh shit I completely didn't mean to park in the compactor"
hahahhahaa awesome.
and my news rating was for MJ new album. too lazy to change it
|
| |
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
|
| |
maybe it crashed into the early grave's van.
|
| |
what causes ratings to show up in news articles?
|
| |
this sucks. a few friends of mine were gonna go to the Tallahassee show. maybe this will make them feel obligated to come back to FL and do a rain check show which i will attend.
|
| |
ooh man EpXeh... That's.... Oh man.
This sucks for them, love this band.
|
| |
Guys, I can't figure out how to rate this album. Everybody else has a rating.
|
| |
glad they will be able to make it to D.C.
what a relief.
|
| |
oh shit. RIP drums...
|
| |
love this band. really sucks.
|
| |
Least I'll get to see them in D.C still...damn man, so much bad news lately. Hope they recover alright. I'd be destroyed over losing a kit like that.
|
| |
this is so sad. rip drumkit.
awesome bands like this don't deserve shit like this to happen to them.
|
| |
^This^
|
| |
Hmm, I was thinking about seeing that Carrboro show. Good thing I didn't I guess.
Sucks for them. I hope they get back on track alright, two vans? That's a lot of money.
|
| |
Damnn that Sucks.
|
| |
Ok so the moral of the story is don't drive vans
|
| |
This sucks, I'd feel a little less bad if the band sucked, but these guys rule... RiP drumset.
|
| |
yeah true
|
| |
