Remaining European Dates and Xmas Jam Appearance Canceled

Post by mark lynn »

From THE OFFICIAL DBT SITE:The band has been sick for several days and last night Mike Cooley collapsed due to exhaustion and dehydration. Doctors have advised complete bed rest. We are very sorry to cancel shows at the end of this tour, especially in Scandinavia, where the band have such a loyal following. Please know we will make every effort to reschedule these shows sometime in the near future. Thank you for your understanding and your continued support

This is a bummer...for all involved. All I know is the band pushes as hard as they can but you can only wear your tires so thin before you have a blow out. I wish Mike and everyone else all the best and hope they can rest and recover quickly. What's that he said about "actually do'in it that is exhausting??? ;) Take care all.
Never going back to Buttholeville. (Good luck with that!)

Bummer for the fans that are missing the show! Y'all will just have to come to Athens in January! Hope they rest up and get well soon!

Some funny retweets on DBT's Twitter feed: http://twitter.com/#!/drivebytruckers. The best one: "Cooley didn't collapse to the floor, the floor stood up to greet Cooley"
