Bunnymen out of MelbourneLaneway

Fri 29th Jan, 2010 in Local News

Echo & the Bunnymen have cancelled their appearance at the Melbourne Laneway Festival tomorrow.

Lead singer Ian McCulloch, who was due to arrive in Melbourne tonight, has missed his flight from London and won’t make it to Australia in time for the scheduled performance. At this stage, all other performances are due to go ahead as planned.

The Laneway Festival has apologised for any inconvenience and a replacement act will be announced shortly.

Rumours that he missed the flight after hearing about Bloc Party's DJ set tonight in Melb are totally unfounded.

i hope it's st. vincent instead. have you heard her album? It's magnificent thus far, a very diverse sound.

absolutely no chance of an international act replacing echo... so you will have to wait until st vincent make the journey here for their own tour.

Hopefully they get someone good as a replacement like Grinspoon or Faker.

No change to timetable just a straight swap.
