Mega-bummer on the Wet Hair tour front. Seems that front man/Night People curator/cool dude Shawn Reed has wrecked his knee up somethin’ fierce. Since getting around for the guy is basically not an option and some surgery is in the works, the band is gonna have to cancel that West Coast tour with Rene Hell that all you kids were wetting your britches over.
Sucks, I know, but according to a statement from Shawn, the shows that were scheduled with Broken Water are still going to happen, just minus Wet Hair. Any shows involving Wet Hair and Rene Hell are nada. If you’re unfortunate enough to live in the Midwest, the band is still set to play their record release show in their homestead of Iowa City, which I’m pretty sure is happening this weekend. Also, that psychic gem of a new album of theirs, In Vogue Spirit, is still being released on De Stijl. Hear a track from it over at the Chocolate Grinder and read our review here. Hopefully with some proper recovery the band will make up for the lost tourdates sometime toward the end of the summer. Best of luck to ya, bro.
