DREAM THEATER singer James LaBrie's solo tour - which was scheduled to kick off on November 26 in Charlotte, North Carolina and end on December 20 in Houston, Texas - has been canceled. His statement on the matter reads as follows:

"It is very difficult for what I am about to say. The 'Static Impulse' tour has been canceled due to some unfortunate, unforeseen difficulties with securing work visas for a couple of the guys. It would be virtually impossible for us to have these visas processed on time to begin the tour let alone the rehearsals which were scheduled for the week prior to the first show. I don't know what to say other than we are all in shock and can only hope we can make this a reality at some point in the near future.

I am really sorry to everyone who has gone out and purchased the meet-and-greets and show tickets. This totally sucks and I'm sure you're all quite upset and have every right to be. I can only ask for your understanding and forgiveness and assure you that when we are in a position (hopefully in the near future ) to tour all of this will have been taken care of well in advance or it just won't happen."
