TRISTANIA have issued the following message from bassist Ole Vistnes:

"Tristania has been forced to cancel the upcoming tour in China. The tour was supposed to take place between July 20th and 30th and run through 5 different cities.

We are extremely sorry it had to come to this, but as we prepared for the tour, there was several strong indicators that something was not right. We did not get the appropriate Visas, there was a contract infringement regarding the flight tickets, and it was clear that the level of communication between the promoter and the venues was not professional.

All in all there was no other choice but to cancel the dates."

On the hopes of new dates in China: "We were really looking forward to the trip, and we really hope we can go to China and the far East soon."
