Heaven And Hell - All Summer Dates Cancelled

Heaven And Hell are forced to cancel all upcoming summer dates in Europe, including their headlining show at Bloodstock Open Air's 10th anniversary festival, Nova Rock and all Sonisphere dates.

The following statement has been posted on Tony Iommi's website: "We have to announce that all forthcoming Heaven And Hell European shows have been cancelled as sadly Ronnie isn't well enough to tour this summer. We hope that everyone understands and want to thank fans and industry colleagues for their continuing support at this time."

Last year Ronnie James Dio was diagnosed with stomach cancer. Read more here.

Still, I hope a replacement will be announced... Loading...
