If you were planning on checking out video games live this fall, this may sting a little bit. The entire 2005 VGL
tour, with the exception of the Seattle and Vancouver dates next week, have been cancelled. No specifics are mentioned
(as the saying goes, "circumstances beyond [their] control"), but one gets the feeling from reading the
release that it may have to do with a dearth of ticket
sales.
Sad news, but with any luck they will tour again in the Spring. Anyone who has tickets can receive a refund -
Ticketmaster is pocketing its one-time handling charge of $4.50, though.
