Not long after the news about Live Nation and AEG Worldwide suspending all events until April in response the the New York State ban on assembly of 500 or more people (seen HERE) comes the news about the cancellation of the 2020 Decibel Magazine Tour. Read on for one of the bands statements.
Statement From The True Mayhem:
In an effort to control the spread of the covid-19 pandemic, numerous states and cities on the Decibel Magazine Tour routing have announced bans on gatherings in excess of 250 or 500 people (with many more expected to do the same in the coming days). As a result, we have unfortunately been forced to cancel the Decibel Magazine Tour. For ticket refunds, please inquire at point of purchase. Thank you for your understanding and support of Mayhem, Abbath, Gatecreeper, Idle Hands and Decibel.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: I was planning on going to this one because not only was it going to be a fantastic night of Metal display but it was falling on the 15th Anniversary of this humble website that you are currently reading. I’m still going to celebrate of course but most likely from the safety of my living room with a book and a cup of coffee. Be safe out there my friends, this one really ramped up speed fast and furious and has cancelled so many things. Stay healthy, wash your hands and limit interactions if at all possible. See you next time or should I say in a few more minutes with another cancellation update.
