Echo & the Bunnymen reschedules show after frontman Ian McCulloch injured in crash
Echo & the Bunnymen has rescheduled its show that was postponed after singer Ian McCulloch was injured in a crash.
"We are pleased to confirm that the postponed Philadelphia show has been rescheduled and will now take place on 9th June," the band wrote in a Monday post on Instagram. "All original tickets will remain valid for the new date."
Doors for the show at the Fillmore will open at 7 p.m. Tuesday. Fans unable to attend the new date are advised to contact their original point of purchase "for information regarding available options."
Known best for 1980s hits including "The Killing Moon," the English rock band announced Sunday that "McCulloch's vehicle was involved in a road traffic incident" while he was traveling between tour stops from Washington, D.C., to Philadelphia.
"As a result, Ian required medical treatment," the band's statement read. "Thankfully, the injuries sustained are not believed to be serious; however, as you can appreciate, he has been left understandably shaken by the incident. As a precautionary measure, Ian is undergoing further medical assessment, including scans and X-rays."
The band added that "after careful consideration," it had decided to postpone its Philadelphia show that night and apologized to fans.
"Postponing a show is always a last resort," continued the statement. "We never want to disappoint our fans, and we know many of you will have made plans to attend this evening's concert."
Echo & the Bunnymen has not announced any other changes to its current tour. The band is scheduled to perform a sold-out show at the Brooklyn Paramount in New York on Monday night, followed by shows in Boston, Toronto, Cleveland and Detroit.
