Getting into the US can be a Tricky thing. But despite the unknowable webs of red tape that block America’s borderlines, Mr. ‘Nearly God’ nearly got into the country for his upcoming summer tour… nearly. Due to complications involving unforeseen US Visa issues, Tricky has been forced to postpone his upcoming US tour dates until October. Every level-headed Visa conspiracy theorist’s assumptions have finally been confirmed: the US Visa office is merely a means to deny Americans their due artistic/creative pleasures. Luckily, all tickets will be honored for the rescheduled dates, or refunded in the event that rescheduling was impossible.
Tricky addressed the issue directly: “It is a situation that is compeletely beyond my control due to a US Visa issue. All I can do is go through the proper channels and secure the right visa. I hope you’ll bear with me and I’ll make sure that the rescheduled shows are worth the wait.”
Maybe this a good thing. Tricky’s infamous, shirt-less antics will certainly fit in better with Halloween celebrations than with 4th of July’s blistery BBQs.
