The Announcement:
Thank you so much for all your warm messages to Tomomi. Unfortunately, now Mami and Rina have testing positive and Haruna also have some throat pain although their tests are negative for now. We are very emotional and there is no easy way to say this, however, we have no choice but we need to cancel the rest of the North America tour including Seattle, Anaheim and Dallas.

We know that there are many people who have waited for this tour for a long time and we were also really looking forward to sharing our music again after these last couple years. It’s absolutely heartbreaking that we cannot continue the tour anymore and have to return to Japan.

Please contact your local venue for the refunds of your tickets.

Thank you so much for all your continued support and we hope to meet everyone very soon!

Love Haruna, Tomomi, Mami, Rina

PiercingMetal Thoughts: This stinks but good health is of the utmost importance nowadays and well, always IMHO. Back when the girls announced that some dates had been postponed due to COVID-19 exposure (documented HERE in case you missed that), I had pointed out that I recently worked in the COVID Safety Sector and it was no joke keeping people safe from the virus as best as possible. I don’t have much more to add to this outside of wishing them all the very best of health and speedy recovery so they can map out a return in the not too distant future. Their show was a very positive and fun experience that I think more people will like if they get the chance to see them. Stay safe out there my friends because COVID is still very much a thing no matter what some of the politicians will tell you.
