Snow more tour
By Elaine Sheridan
Northern Irish band Snow Patrol have been forced to cancel some of their
European tour dates after bassist Paul Wilson injured his left arm and
shoulder. The hitmakers, who were in the middle of the French leg of their
European tour, were scheduled to play four more dates in the country before
performing in Germany.
However, Wilson has been advised by doctors to take a month off to recover.
His injuries are the latest setback for the rockers. They were forced
to cancel their US tour earlier this year when frontman Gary Lightbody
suffered a severe throat infection. Lightbody said: “It seems our
run of bad luck healthwise continues. Paul is gutted and he was keen not
to cancel anything. However, his injury is serious and if not dealt with
now, could land him in dangerous territory in the future. He feels terrible
about it though, but we’d rather he didn’t lose the use of
his arm.”
The group are adamant they will be ready for their British tour dates
later next month.
